Australia to do a gradual analog TV shutdown

Instead of the entire country switching analog TV off on the same day (except one test city), like we did here in the USA. Was listening to an Australian radio station internet stream (Internet stream DX? ) and they mentioned a web site with info http://www.digitalready.gov.au/rolloutmap.aspx
From 2010 to 2013

Thank GOD for that.

I still don't receive my TV feed from a digital set-top box.We kill-off analogue here in South East Queensland in 2013.

That gives me another 3 years.

It's still last year here in the USA.

I see that your location is Queensland, sunshine coast. Back in 1986 I vacationed in Australia (to see Haley's Comet) and one of the cities my tour group visited was Cairns. Was a nice little town, near the Great Barrier Reef. As the tour bus rolled into town from the airport, I saw a place that had a big sign "XXXX" over the front. Thought it was an "adult movie" theater...
I still remember the radio station callsigns like "558 4AM" and "4CA".
