ZIMBABWE’s first independent television station, 3Ktv, is toasting to two years of non-stop live broadcasting today, as it continues to set the pace in the industry.
3Ktv is a free-to-air (FTA), digital terrestrial television (DTT) station. This means that contrary to social media babble, anyone with the right equipment — such as a digital TV set or suitable set-top box — can receive its programming for free wherever the signal is available.
However, 3Ktv’s feed is also available through other platforms for which subscription fees may be payable. This explains the commercial station’s key partnership with MultiChoice which has seen it also hosted on DStv’s channel 293.
