Hi Brian

Just noticed that you have ITV1 HD as the Granada region from Pontop Pike on CH63, we actually get ITV1 HD London, I think as at 6pm on a weekday the local news is London Tonight.

Will this change to ITV1 HD Granada when Pontop Pike goes through digital switchover in September next year or will it stay as London?

On Digital 3 +4 Multiplex you have ITV1+1 listed as ITV Yorkshire but this changed to ITV Tyne Tees about 6 months ago.

Local TV for Newcastle has been delayed apparently but MadeTV work on the policy of silence until they can give a launch date according to an e-mail from David McCormack I received after enquiring when the newcastle station was launching as no update on their website

It also seems to being controlled from Leeds rather than Newcastle

Comux Local TV Multiplex now testing from Pontop Pike on Channel 56

It will add Channel 791 and 792 to the lineup and you should see the Comux Local TV Test Screen on each channel

I contacted Digital Uk to ask when the COM7 multiplex was due to launch from Pontop Pike as Bilsdale was due to launch it on the 3rd March 2014. Below is the reply I got:

"Thank you for your email about the availability of new COM7 HD services from the Pontop Pike transmitter.

The current plan does include Pontop Pike transmitter however we do not have a specific date yet. We would suggest checking our website regularly as this will be updated as soon as we have this information"

In IE9 the menu on the left of is stuck on the news options and the page does not close and the pin icon just doesn't work and the menu obscures part of the screen

The same thing happened when you did the last updates as well and it was weeks before it worked properly

I have the latest updates of flash installed as well
