A broadcasting era ends on 30 November as analogue TV signals are switched off at midnight and from 1 December Hong Kong TV broadcasting becomes digital-only.
The government has advised that people still using analogue TVs (around 68 000 households based on a recent survey) should obtain digital TV receivers, or they will not be able to access free local TV programmes.
Analogue TV households who are on social assistance programmes can apply at digitaltv.hkcss.org.hk/en/ for a free digital TV set.
