BBCB will be on Ch41+ from Emley Moor. What does the + denote, is it a frequency offset ?? There are also some transmitters eg:- Longwod Edge which will put out BBCB on 62-.
Also what will be the channel nombers from Emley Moor between 7-9-11 and 21-9-11.
Regards...Pete.

P Howarth: Yes, + and - denote a 166kHz ofset.
As it says above "Wednesday 7th September 2011
ITV-1 swaps to C51. BBC TWO C47 closes. BBCA starts on C47. "

P Howarth: Yes, the + indicates a positive offset of 167kHz. Your box should automatically detect this offset if you manually tune on C41. Likewise, the - indicates a negative offset of 167kHz.
These offsets are being applied to the channels bordering the regions being released, potentially for other services, to provide a small 'guard band', avoiding possible interference from those services. C41 may or may not actually get an offset, because C40 is now not being released. Sudbury, which also uses C41/C44/C47, is not using an offset on C41.
The channel numbers at Emley Moor between the 7th and 21st will be:
Analogue:
BBC One stays on C44
BBC Two shuts down
ITV1 moves to C51 replacing BBC Two
C4 stays on C41
Digital:
Mux 1 shuts down
BBC A starts up on C47 replacing ITV1
Mux A moves to C52 to release C43 for Sutton Coldfield, replacing Mux 1
Mux 2, B, C, D and low-power HD all stay on current channels (C40-, C46-, C50-, C49-, C39).

David: Only if you don't want to record or time-shift. Recording/time-shifting costs £120 per year, and it's difficult to get Sky to sell you this minimum package, they'd far rather sell you a subscription at £234 per year.

So here's a question.
I'm savvy with most things electronic (I build and fix PC's etc for a living) - what I want to know is this.
I live in Eckington (S21) - but I get (and I've always got) BBC1 Look North for the Lincolnshire region.
Any ideas why? As it's totally baffled me and it's also baffled the easily confused telephone operatives at the Digital Switchover helpline....lol
Thanks in advance.
Mick

Mick C: It is likely that you are using the Belmont transmitter for your TV reception. If the aerial points East this will be the case. To receive Look North from Leeds you would need to use Emley Moor, the most likely alternative in S21. Reception is very patchy from a number of transmitters in that general area, with more distant transmitters often providing the best signals.

Mick in Eckington
I live nearby in Gleadless and go to Eckington a lot. Most aerials in the town point to Belmont so I am sure this is why you get BBC1 Lincs. To be fair, lots of homes in North Derbyshire and Sheffield do - it may be possible to fit an aerial for Emley Moor but if you live down at the bottom of the hill this might not be possible. It will cost you too
