South Africa's analogue TV switch-off on track for 30 June

South Africa's last remaining analogue TV signals are ready to be switched off, and the Department of Communications and Digital Technologies (DCDT) is waiting for confirmation from the Constitutional Court for the final switch-off.

The final switch-off is scheduled for 30 June 2022, and communications minister Khumbudzo Ntshavheni said there are no expected delays.
