Below are all of MuxedUp's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Why is the BBC Red Button service so poor in our area? It started with two (or three) channels (301, 302), but now only 301 seems to be used. Furthermore, today's coverage of the commonwealth games has a red button for Cycling which leads to a blank screen. It's good to see BBC3 being used during the daytime, but why not BBC4 too?

The above article states that "ArqA and ArqB are often held at low power for many months following the digital switchover", but it doesn't explain why that is the case. Surely, now that analogue has gone, Mux's carrying the likes of FilmFour & ITV4 (which I can no longer receive) ought to be able to sustain a stronger signal. Why the delay? And when can we expect their signal strength to be increased?
