Minimum level of service requirements
The DCPs specify the ERP levels expected to meet the ‘same level of coverage’ objectives given in paragraph 6 (3) (f) of Schedule 4 of the Broadcasting Services Act. However, some DCPs include channel allotments with directional ERP restrictions on some services that apply until certain analog television services cease transmission. Notwithstanding the legislative requirement, these limits may mean, in some instances, that it will not be practicable to achieve the same coverage goal until the concerned analog transmission ceases.
