Television

Our basic television service has 3 channels, SABC 1, SABC2 and SABC3. SABC stands for the South African Broadcasting Corporation. These three channels broadcast news, sport, sitcoms, drama, reality shows and general standard fare.

A fourth channel, called e-TV offers a further selection, but does not enjoy clear reception in all areas.

Mnet is our local channel service and generally provides more current movies and actuality shows.

DSTV is our satellite television service.

All accommodation establishments have standard television channels and most offer Mnet (cable). Some offer DSTV as well.
