What changes were made to Australia's channel frequencies after transitioning to digital TV?

OpenAI's Answer

After the transition to digital TV in Australia, there was a significant reshuffling in the channel frequencies. This included changing frequencies for approximately 1,250 digital TV channels across 373 transmission sites, with additional adjustments at 53 more sites. This large-scale effort required around 346,000 hours of work to complete.

One of the main reasons for these changes was the 'restack' process, which involved retuning digital television services to new frequencies to free up spectrum for new services, such as mobile broadband. This affected about 1,500 digital television services at around 440 transmission sites.
