It must be noted that with the contribution of its regional offices, EETT prevents the
installation of illegal local transmitters, conducts continuing monitoring measurements and records
digital television broadcasts and, depending on the case, takes all applicable administrative and

nationwide in which the digital transmission facilities of the legally authorized providers will be
