It was also revealed that MultiChoice would be adding Zambezi Reloaded a sister channel of Zambezi Magic. Now the pay-tv company is set to unveil yet another TV channel, 1Free State Television (1FSTV).
Based in Bloemfontein, 1FSTV broadcasts a variety of programming including news, current affairs, entertainment, and educational shows. The channel is committed to promoting the culture and heritage of the Free State province, and to providing a platform for local voices to be heard.
1FSTV launched four years ago as a programming block on St Rise before getting a dedicated TV channel on StarSat. Now the channel expands to more platforms in South Africa with DStv from 16 November.
Details of a channel number and package have yet to be announced same with capacity as most new channels would usually come around the time another closes. If I had to guess it might be on Access or Easyview sitting between channel 251-299.
