900K British households may see their free terrestrial TV reception disrupted by nationwide rollout of 4G LTE services next year. British telecom regulator Ofcom is preparing to auction off radio spectrum in 800 MHz and 2.6 GHz bands for the next generation 4G LTE services. The problem is -Â until recently, the 800 MHz band was used for analog terrestrial TV delivery. And only parts of it were freed up for mobile broadband services, as TV moved to a much more efficient digital format. But Digital Terrestrial TV (DTT/Freeview) channels are very close to where 4G transmitters will be broadcasting.
