TRADITIONAL TV and radio services which are often relied on by rural and island communities and people on low incomes in Scotland are at risk of disappearing in the decades to come, a campaign group has warned.
Many households still rely on signals through aerials for Freeview TV and broadcast radio, which do not require broadband connections or monthly subscriptions.
However the Broadcast 2040+ campaign – which includes infrastructure company Arqiva and groups such as Age UK and The Rural Services Network, says the provision of terrestrial TV and radio services is only certain until the early 2030s.
