Free to air digital television and radio channels via Satellite for those living in remote areas or who are unable to receive digital TV through their normal antenna because of issues relating to local interference, terrain or distance from the transmitter in their area. The VAST decoder can be registered as a permanent or traveller registration. A permanent registration is for households with a fixed installation of the decoder. A traveller registration covers people who as part of their travelling are in areas of Australia not covered by normal terrestrial television. Access to available channels is based on which state your box is registered to.
