** Yep.
VHF and UHF TV channels all have 7 MHz of bandwidth available.
A typical SD signal uses up less than 2MHz while a HD one uses maybe 5
Hz - so broadcasters can have both at once.
Two SDs and one HD simultaneously is quite possible too.
Better still is the fact that digital TV a channels can be stacked right up
against each other - unlike the old analogue ones that required a clear
channel exist between any active ones serving the same location.
The UHF band will soon be chocka with them.

If by that you mean UHF/VHF, the antenna handles that fine. Are all the
digital channels on UHF?
** Been answered - pal.
But just to LABOR the point:
Just don't labour the point too much.
Channel 2 digital = VHF 12
Channel 7 digital = VHF 6
Channel 9 digital = VHF 8
Channel 10 digital = VHF 11
SBS TV digital = UHF 34
The list applies to SD as well as HD signals - but it applies only to
Sydney.
Are you saying the SD and HD signals are both on the same channel per
station?
