Below are all of Mr Scott's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Many thanks for the answers to my "channel numbers" - "Frequencies" question, I have had a good hunt about and now have a list of the various frequencies, and muxed channels available on the three transmitters I can "hear" a decent signal from. The channel numbering makes sense now I have had a good think about it.
I have not owned a TV receiver since the mid 1980s and have only got interested in broadcast TV through using SDR (software defined radio) the actual frequencies are of more use to me than allocated channel identifier numbers.
I have given up on the Group A antenna I was given by a friend and have built a wideband antenna with an inline preamp at the antenna, this feeds down a fairly long coax to a small variable gain wideband amp in my radio shed. This feeds 2 SDR receivers and an old PC. After tracking down some DVB-T decoder software and feeding it my compiled frequency list I now have several channels of TV.
Thanks again for the assistance, cheers..

Is there any way of getting a list of FREQUENCIES for UK DVB broadcast channels?
Sadly it seems to be common practice for Channel Numbers be wrongly referred to as frequencies. They are ~NOT RADIO FREQUENCIES~
