TV White Spaces could greatly improve broadband in South Africa

Television White Spaces (TVWS) are set to deliver faster and wider-reaching broadband connectivity in rural areas of South Africa.

A large number of the country's population currently resides in rural locations, where the need for effective communication technologies remains high.

All good and well, but we've been trying to get a license for 6 years to set up towers using TVWS.

So yea, good on paper, no logistical way to get it done.

Next.
