The Regulator has already processed the expansion of coverage at the following areas: . For SABC 1, 2, 3 & Umhlobo Wenene FM are Pearston, Rhodes, Hofmeyer, Whittlesea, Natures Valley and Kareedouw. . For Umhlobo Wenene FM are Richmond (North West), Steynsbueg and Steytlerville (KZN). The installation of a new SABC 1, 2 & 3 transmitter at the main Kokstad site by Sentech is almost complete. This will bring coverage for SABC 1 & 3 in this area which was previously reliant to the low-powered transmitter and self-help sites. However from the list received from regional office of the Regulator the areas around Alice are not covered even after Sentech had installed the new high-powered transmitter sites already approved by the Regulator. The SABC has already requested Sentech to investigate the possibility of correcting the situation by means of low-powered transmitter sites.
