ETV Satellite Transition Information

On August 1, 2008 ETV transitioned from the digicipher satellite technology used for the past 15 years to a new satellite technology. We are no longer able to secure parts for the transmission equipment and receivers for the old system. Installation of the receivers is in progress.

No satellite dishes will need to be moved or require additional equipment if your equipment is currently operational. This upgrade only involves changing out the digital receiver.

Public K-12 Schools and Districts

ETV is providing all public K-12 schools and districts with needed equipment and installation, which is now underway . For questions contact mflamos@scetv.org.

Other Satellite Receive Sites

In order to continue to receive programming via the ETV satellite delivery system, each satellite receive site needs to replace their current receiver (s) with a new digital receiver. No satellite dishes will need to be moved or require additional equipment. This upgrade only requires changing out the digital receiver.

ALL NON-K12 users who wish to continue receiving ETV satellite service must purchase a new digital receiver. They are available for purchase directly from ETV. You can submit the order and an invoice will be sent to you. Installation is available for an additional fee. Detailed installation instructions are available as well if you choose to install it yourself.

We will update this website as additional information becomes available. Please email sokonek@scetv.org with any questions or concerns.
