Hong Kong Invites Applications For Satellite TV Services HONG KONG, CHINA, 1999 AUG 15 (Newsbytes) -- By Martyn Williams, Newsbytes. Hong Kong's telecommunications regulator has invited applications to provide direct-to-home satellite television services for the territory. As many as 40 channels could be provided to viewers with a small antenna and set top receiver. The new services will use space reserved for Hong Kong in the BSS (broadcasting satellite services) satellite band. Unlike existing services that use the lower-frequency C-band and 2 meter antennas, the services will use higher ku-band frequencies and be tightly centered on Hong Kong allowing for reception with antennas around 40- to 60 centimeters in size. When space was set aside for Hong Kong several years ago, the four channels were able to carry four analog television programs however modern digital satellite technology allows for between four and ten channels to be carried in the space on a single analog channel meaning up to 40 programs could be provided via the service. The invitation from OFTA (Office of Telecommunications Authority) calls for proposals to provide broadcasting services via the channels and also extends to the building and operation of a telemetry, tracking, control and monitoring earth station for the satellite. OFTA specified a deadline of October 15 for proposals. Reported By Newsbytes.com, newsbytes.com
