Digital television (DVB-T)
Since August 26, 2008, the Heckenbach-Schöneberg telecommunications tower has been broadcasting digital aerial television ( DVB-T ) with three public multiplex channels for the Ahrweiler region. The horizontal polarization was retained, antennas did not have to be rotated. The former digital broadcasts ran in single-frequency operation (Single Frequency Network) with other transmitter sites.
On November 8, 2017, the broadcast of DVB-T was switched off on the occasion of the switch to DVB-T2. Since then, the region has been supplied with DVB-T2 by the Koblenz transmitter.
