Andy: Of course not, UKTV has no public service obligation unlike BBC/ITV/C4/C5.

Colin Bown: Only one of the three COM muxes were in band before switchover (SDN/Mux A as you can see from the table above).

No at800 cards here over the water in Fife, although it'll be a while until 4G masts are switched on over here probably, bigger towns and cities will get it first.

Any chance of adding the 600mhz channels to the post switchover links in mapofsignal.php? :)

Victoria: The Sony box issue has absolutely NOTHING to do with 4G, because it's affecting the whole country.

Jon: I would phone Sony Woking and explain to them that are they are talking shit, and that it's happening to people across the country.

There is a thread on another forum with an apparent temporary "fix": AVForums.com - View Single Post - Sony 870 (and all Sony HXD) DVD Recorders - No Freeview

Victoria: That is true sorry, misread your post, wanted to make sure people got the 4G idea out of their heads as I'd seen it posted a couple of times re: the Sony problem!

Utku: If you are on the Sandy Heath transmitter (UHF channels 27 and 24) then you will need a wideband (or the new group T) aerial to pick up the commercial channels. You should provide a postcode so we can double check your reception prediction.

Mike Collard: DAB and the Freeview radio channels are two completely separate things in terms of both receivers and aerials so that won't work.

Which radio channels numbers do not work? Obviously BBC stations are available to everyone, but the others are commercial stations only available to those in range of a main Freeview transmitter. If you have channels 10, 11 and 15 you should get all of the Freeview radio stations.

Marty: A quick google shows that your Samsung does not have a Freeview HD tuner (DVB-T2) inside it. RTE2 HD is a different system in that it uses MPEG4 over DVB-T to allow it to switch between SD and HD when needed.
