    DIGITAL BROADCAST NETWORK IS BEING BUILT


    Azat Artsakh, Republic of Nagorno Karabakh [NKR]
    29 Dec 2006


    The Satar Kap Company is setting up a digital broadcast network in
    NKR, which will make all the TV and radio channels broadcast in
    Armenia available in Nagorno Karabakh. Satar Kap has been set up
    recently and digital broadcasting is a novelty in Armenia. Marie
    Barseghian, the representative of the company for Artsakh, said the
    digital network helps solve a number of questions which have not been
    solved so far and technical problems. Marie Barseghian said the
    digital network will provide quality image and stereo sound and
    prevent interference from the neighboring countries. The quality of
    broadcasting will no longer depend on the geography, and there will be
    no problems in villages situated in mountains or gorges. `These
    services will be available for both the capital and the rural
    dwellers,' said Marie Barseghian adding that digital television solves
    a political question too because for a long time the broadcasting of
    the Armenian channels in the border areas was obstructed by the
    Azerbaijani side. According to the representative of Satar Kap, the
    subscriber needs to buy a receiver which costs 120 dollars. The
    programs are divided into special packages. The social package is free
    of charge once the subscriber has bought the receiver. The social
    package includes the public TV channels of Armenia and Artsakh and
    other programs. The basic package includes business news, educational
    programs, programs for kids and costs 2400 drams. Films and sports
    packages cost 1200 drams. According to Marie Barseghian, the company
    is going to provide more services in the future.
