Cork's South Coast Community Television has gone digital.
They have rolled out a full digital service using 11.7GHz - 12.5GHz transmitters.
Its received on a receiving antenna (It will consist of a small dish - 30cm to 45 cm depending on location) and an LNB (low noise block converter) This antenna is similar in appearance to a small satellite dish.
Includes Sky+ like PVR
Currently around 60 channels and Sky By wire video on demand.
The encryption is Conax.
Some of the channels are FTA and can be received with a standard dish/lnb and sat receiver.
Looks promising.

I am using it now. I just got it last week. It's pretty good actually. It's a little like chorus in the channel line up. Actually it is a bit better. I got the "Entertainment Pack" (47 channels)and the "Setanta Sports Extra Pack" (8 extra sports channels). I have 3 independant boxes and I only pay ?45 a month! I went with SCTV because I don't have a telephone line. You don't need it for the extra rooms. Sky would have charged about ?80 for the same. And chorus ?57 or so. The only bad part really was that I had to pay ?150 deposit for all the boxes but I get that back if I leave after my contract is up. Anyone else out there have it? I'm still getting used to it so any tips for recording etc would be handy!!
