Dear Mr Mbugua,
Many thanks for your well-informed (... save for the unfair attack on us at the end) critique (which we have re-published on our website). Clearly, both Communications and Competition Authorities have allowed excessive leeway to the trio of KTN, NTV and CitizenTv to stifle industry competition to the pain of consumers.
It is unfortunate that the 3 media houses declined adverts of their competitors - but wake up to a prominent back page story of "advanced set top boxes" being "on the way" as if DVBT-2 type-approved STB's don't exist. Kenya is using DVBT-2. Perhaps the consortium will be using DVBT-3 or 4 or whichever qualifies to be "advanced".
The accepted standard is DVB T2. There is no leeway to adopt any other version. ______________________ Mwendwa Kivuva, Nairobi, Kenya "There are some men who lift the age they inhabit, till all men walk on higher ground in that lifetime." - Maxwell Anderson
