More details from petition creator
In 2012, analogue television services will be switched off. It is likely that Ofcom (the regulator) will sell the radio frequencies (parts of the radio spectrum) that the analogue channels used to mobile phone companies. We believe that Britain still needs to be the world leader in broadcasting. As a result of allocating these frequencies to HDTV (High-definition television) broadcasts we think that Britain can continue to lead the world in television in the same way that John Logie Baird did in the 1930s. Countries such as America and Australia are already rolling out this technology but Britain has been left behind because of the lack of spectrum space.
