Brian, thank you for all you have done and are doing and (hopefully) will continue to do for us in a prosperous 2013 ;-).

THAT SHOULD CONTINUE...

Just a tiny presentational suggestion - it would be very helpful if the UHF CHANNEL NUMBERS could be more prominently displayed beside the PSBs and COMs, they are what we need for tuning.

I wouldn't need to ask if my filing system (brain) was better organised. I've probably got the list in 10 different places and can't find any of them!

If you find yourself at a loose end during the rest of your healing period, Brian (and may it be short) - how about bludgeoning the Freeview powers-that-be into demanding higher standards for qualifying for the platform?

I'm thinking of channels like Pick, Quest, CBS Reality, TruTV - who should not be allowed to broadcast unless they include Series and Episode info in the EPG, and subtitles where they were available for the original production.

Another problem. not confined to the trash channels, is poor sound quality - the use of "audio compression" (is that the correct term?) to increase the volume of adverts, and background tracks that drown the foreground. Grrr.

Just getting it off my chest, "it" having been simmering there for donkeys!

The Crystal Palace Freeview channel/MUX/UHF lists need to be updated - examples = QuestRed+1 is still there, EarthXTV (79) is not yet included, it is purported to be on Com6.

I would be most grateful if my UHF "bible" could be up-to-date, whilst realising that others have other things to do besides serve us without charge.
