From Wikipedia: The channel's annual budget for 2011/12 is 1,166.6 million.3 Along with the BBC's other domestic television stations, and many European broadcasters and some in Asia, it is funded principally by the television licence fee, and therefore shows uninterrupted programming with no commercial advertising at any time. It is currently the most watched television channel in the United Kingdom, ahead of its traditional rival for ratings leadership, ITV1. This system used a vertically-scanned image of 30 lines just enough resolution for a close-up of one person, and with a bandwidth low enough to use existing radio transmitters. - en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia.org link icon read more about BBC One HD on wikipedia (summary by Clipped).

Pete: The Viera model may not have a HD tuner built-in. In the specification it will say that it is capable of receiving DVB-T2 signals (as well as DVB-T ones).

Freeview HD uses DVB-T2.

Earlier HD sets were HD Ready, meaning that they can show HD pictures, but don't have the means to receive them off the air.

Roger Hodsoll: Yes! on mux Ch22 but reception is indicated as being variable on the verges of poor on all muxes using the code provided, however your "very" local (nearly next door) Bexhill transmitter is indicated as providing excellent reception on channels 46 - 40 - 43 (HD).

doug thwaites: You won't do. HD Ready (<--click the words) means that the set can show HD pictures but does not have the means to receive them off the air.

Terry Wright: The first question would be whether or not you have ever received them? and if not what model number of TV (or box) you are using?
