DTT - Everything you need to know
23. What are the conditions governing the availability of a subsidy for the DTH Kit?
Users who do not live within an area with DTT coverage (terrestrial coverage area) are eligible to receive a reimbursement from PT Comunicações on the cost of acquiring up to two set-top boxes per home, provided they have no subscription television service (pay TV), or in the case of the Autonomous Regions, provided they only receive RTP1 and the respective regional channel (RTP Açores or RTP Madeira).
To obtain the reimbursement, users should acquire a DTH Kit from PT Comunicações. The DTH Kit includes a DTH set-top box, remote control, connection cables and a smartcard.
It is also possible to request installation of the DTH reception system (including satellite dish, cabling and installation of the antenna) from the agents or partners of PT Comunicaçõeshttp://tdt.telecom.pt/como/Default.aspx?code=XzX6F6#searchInstaladores. Applications for the subsidy may be submitted up to 26 April 2013.
To check if you live in an area with digital reception only available through satellite, check the DTT Website or call freephone 800 200 838.
For further information, see the DTT Websitehttp://tdt.telecom.pt/.
