Anyone know what will happen to us travelling sat tv users when analogue tv is turned off? Is sat tv sent up to the wild blue in analogue format or digital. In other words, will we still get sat tv when anologue is turned off? I can't be on the road and not be able to watch footy and v8 supercars can I!
