Below are all of StevensOnln1's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Chunky: Yes, that's correct. 51 & 52 are the logical channel numbers you enter on your remote to view the channels. C39 is the UHF channel corresponding to 618MHz. Do you get any signal strength or quality readings when you select C39?

Chunky: Have you checked with any neighbours as to whether they get reception of the NI mux? It may be that you have an older grouped aerial (Divis is a group A transmitter, but the NI mux on C39 from Black Mountain is outside the group A frequency range and a group A aerial won't have been designed to receive this frequency).

Murray Bro: London Live is a local TV service covering the London area from Crystal Palace and Croydon transmitters at a much lower power level than the main PSB and COM services. It was never intended to cover Bedfordshire (or any of the other counties surrounding London).

PhilW, sue thornhi & Tracey Allin: True Movies is broadcast on Freeview from 9pm-5am as it shares capacity with Pop Max which broadcasts from 5am-9pm. This is down to the broadcaster (Sony) who own both channels.

Sheila: Sky News has moved to channel 233 as part of a reshuffle of channel numbers a couple of months ago (news, kids and adult channels all moved to new number ranges).

Jan: Please provide a full postcode so we can see the coverage prediction for your location. Waltham hasn't suddenly reduced its coverage area so there must be some kind of fault or interference somewhere. When you say you've tried manual tuning, which UHF channels have you tried this with?

Alan Claridge: You would need a USB DVB-S2 satellite tuner such as the one at the link below, which needs to be connected to a satellite dish pointing at the 28E orbital position (you can reuse the existing dish and cabling if your property has previously had Sky). You won't receive Freesat as such, but you'll be able to receive all the free to air (FTA) channels which are available on Freesat.

@Briantist: My first post above didn't appear after I pressed submit (and reloaded the page a couple of times), so I retyped my reply and both appeared when I submitted the second time.
