Problems Watching WIN Channels? WIN Network Technology Improvement

If you own a television that is over 10 years old, now is the time to consider purchasing a newer model. Many free to air channels on the WIN Network are transitioning to newer technology, with the aim to improve picture quality and provide more flexibility in how these free-to air channels are viewed in regional Australia.

The technology is being upgraded from MPEG2 delivered channels to MPEG4. Some channels that have already undergone the transition include:

Nine HD (CH80)
Nine Life (CH83)
TVSN (CH84)
GOLD (CH85)

Further channels expected to undergo the transition in the coming months include:

GEM (CH81) in May 2023 (*GEM to upgrade to HD in late July 2023)
GO! (CH82) In June 2023

Channel 8, which is broadcasting lower quality Nine SD (standard definition) will remain in the old format, Mpeg2, for the next couple of months, but will eventually also transition.

At Jim’s Antennas, we expect our other regional and metor networks to also transition more of their channels over to the MPEG4 format as new technologies improve and become cheaper to purchase.

An alternative route to purchasing a new television is to buy a Set Top box (STB) that will allow you to view these channels.

For further information you can visit the WIN Network.

If you are not satisfied with the job, we will inspect it and have any problems fixed. If we believe the job is good and you do not, we will jointly agree on an independent expert to provide a report at our expense, and fix any problems found. Until this is done, you need not pay for the job. If problems are not fixed within a fortnight, any advance will be refunded.

Only if no problems are found by the expert, will you be asked to pay the agreed price for the job and half the cost of the report.

If the job is done to get your bond back on leaving a rental property, the job is only considered good when the agent or landlord is satisfied.

If payment is made in advance and the job not done, the payment will be refunded.
