📋 Tender Overview
The Ministry of Communications authorized on Friday (5) companies to relay digital TV channels in cities of Mato Grosso, Rio de Janeiro and Santa Catarina.
The grants were published in the Federal Official Gazette (DOU).
TV See News Ltda. received a grant to relay in Campo Novo do Parecis and Tangara da Serra, in MT. In the same state, the pioneer broadcasting network was authorized to operate in Nova Mutum and Colider.
In Rio de Janeiro, the town television will make relay in Casimiro de Abreu. And in Santa Catarina, the Osny Jose Goncalves Foundation Television Bela Alianca will work in Rio do Campo, Otacilio Costa and Ascurra.
The expansion of digital channels, through retransmissions, is critical to bringing quality information and entertainment to all corners of Brazil, especially in more remote locations. These constant authorizations are important because they provide thousands of Brazilians access to a better quality image and with less risk of interference from other channels, says the Minister of Communications, Frederico de Siqueira Filho.
RTV
The service has the purpose of relaying, simultaneously or not, the signs of television generating stations, allowing them to be received in places where they are not reached directly or where they arrive in inadequate technical conditions. The broadcasters authorized to perform RTV services may relay the signals from commercial or educational TV generating stations.
Authorizations for the execution of the RTV service may be granted primary or secondary or secondary channel (no protection against interference). In both cases, they are granted precariously, as they are ancillary services to the sons and images (TV) broadcasting service.
