Ian Gosling: Yes, everyone who can get an analogue signal before switchover will get a digital one afterwards.

This is, after all, the whole point of the exercise.

Davyblue: You can pick up the free-to-air channels, but Freesat also includes an EPG and MHEG5 services, which your box will not provide.

Terry: You will need to call Sky if you have Sky Sports or Sky Movies. Otherwise they just work.

Scott: No, they can't do that. It would take other analogue services transmitters of air.

Dean: Yes, the COM changes should improve things.

I'm wondering if your set is actually picking up the COMs from Wenvoe, rather than Mendip?

Can you trying deleting all your channels and then doing a "manual add" using the above frequencies?

ConorMcDermott: UKTV is a joint venture between the BBC and (now) Virgin Television.

Dave and Yesterday are not on Freesat, as the contract the Sky use to have pay channels in their EPG do not allow them to have a mixture of pay and free channels.

I'm not sure if Channel 4 has the cash to buy out Virgin Television from UKTV.

I should post more of my complaining on my blog really...
