The antenna on top of Žižkov TV tower replaced

The antenna on top of the TV tower in Prague’s Žižkov district, which provides a signal to viewers in the Czech capital, was replaced by a new one on Monday morning. The upgrade of the device is part of the changes in television broadcasting from analogue to digital broadcasting. Streets in the tower’s immediate vicinity were closed during the operation and people were told not to open their windows for security reasons. All analogue broadcasters in the Czech Republic are expected to make the transition to digital between the years 2010 and 1012.
