Association seeks to hold off auction of 3500MHz band
Bangkok Post
|April 02, 2025
The Association of Digital Television Broadcasting (ADTEB) is vehemently opposed to the regulator's plan to auction off the rest of the 3500-megahertz spectrum.
Association members voiced their opposition at the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission's (NBTC) public hearing on the plan to auction off seven spectrum bands yesterday, saying the intention to license the 3500MHz band is "too rushed" as there are unclear details on the migration of digital TV customers switching on this band to other frequencies.
The auctioning off of the band could directly affect the digital TV broadcasting landscape as many satellite TV stations now use the band to air digital TV programmes, and 60% of Thais view digital TV via a satellite platform.
All digital TV broadcasting licences expire in 2029.
According to ADTEB president Suphap Kleekajai, the digital TV broadcasters have faced challenges starting from the NBTC auction of licences of 24 digital TV channels in 2013.
That auction featured a combined bid payment of 50 billion baht.
