Serbia has taken another important step in its transition to digital broadcasting.
According to Balkans.com, this follows the signing of the Rule Book on the allocation of frequencies for analogue FM and TV broadcasting stations by Rasim Ljajic, the deputy prime minister and minister of foreign and internal trade and telecommunications.
The Rule Book frees up some of the frequencies that used to belong to the now defunct station TV Avala and these will now be allocated to the DTT network.
Independent regulatory bodies will meanwhile manage the remaining spectrum.
The Rule Book also creates the conditions for the use of DTT equipment valued at over €8 million and received by Serbia from the EU.
Serbia is expected to complete the transition to digital broadcasting in June 2015.
