My TV signal keeps cutting out, what do I need to do?
This may be caused by a number of factors including weather, antenna location, type of antenna, your digital set-top box connection or even the strength of the signal and your location to that signal. First we recommend you turn both you TV and set top box off for 30 seconds, then turn them back on. If this doesn't correct your issue, we recommend you contact a television technician.

On Wednesday, 2 March 2016.Why has TEN HD been launched?
Viewers have been asking for TEN to run in both SD and HD for many years now.Changes in government legislation in late 2015 have allowed us to bring TEN to viewers in HD. Until those changes, we were not permitted to broadcast TEN in HD.
HD offers a superior and amazing viewing experience, with sharp, stunning images for all your favourite TEN shows, from MasterChef Australia,Offspring and The Bachelor Australia to Formula One, V8 Supercars and the KFC Big Bash League – at double the resolution of standard definition – all for free!
With the addition of TEN HD, Network Ten has five channels: TEN, TEN HD, ELEVEN, ONE and our online catch-up and streaming service, tenplay.
Network Ten also offers the datacast home shopping channels TVSN and Spree TV.

High definition (HD or HDTV) is a digital TV broadcasting format that provides a substantially higher resolution and image quality than that of standard analogue or other digital television formats.What has happened to the existing TEN channel?

What if I cannot re-tune my TV set to receive Channel 13/TEN HD?
If you do not receive TEN HD after you re-tune your TV set, it means you do not have an MPEG 4 decoder and, therefore, you cannot receive TEN HD.But TEN SD continues.

No.It became a standard definition channel on Wednesday, 2 March 2016, the same day TEN HD was introduced.
Why could ONE not remain in HD?
As we are providing TEN SD and TEN HD in simulcast to ensure all viewers have the ability to watch TEN, we don’t have the spectrum capacity to keep ONE in HD as well.We always wanted to have TEN in HD, however, previously we were restricted under legislation.
Now that these restrictions are lifted, we want to provide the highest quality viewing experience on TEN.
Will the sport seen in HD on ONE in the past now switch to TEN HD?
No.The premium sport on TEN will now be seen in crystal clear HD, including live Formula One races, live V8 Supercars races and highlights programs, the KFC Big Bash League, Rugby Union, RPM and Netball.
