Mark Aberfan Aerials: Yes, a great thumbs up to that.

To be clear, I'm not saying I do not wish people to disagree or argue, or point out errors and mistakes.

There just needs to be a little more focus on helping, to ensure the site continues to be useful for the 99% of people who use it and never post at all.

Nedbod: There are two differnet things going on. There is a "over the whole broadcast day average" which is the smaller value.

There is also a "peak time maximum" which is the larger value.

ITV, for example, can broadcast no adverts during the night or daytime and use the time saved to boost the minutes during the valuable peak time.

David Anderson: Arquiva, due to their monopoly poisition in the market, are require to offer the slot to the higest bidder.

Therefore it could be any content, which may also include encrypted content (such as Sky Sport 3, for example).

I suspect that making the slot visible will assist them with the launch of whatever channel that wins the auction, without having to wait for everyone to retune.

Leicester Lad: You won't be using Sutton Coldfield then, you will be getting your signal from the Nottingham or Waltham transmitter. This will have Freeview HD from Wednesday 13th April 2011 (Nottingham) or Wednesday 31st August 2011 (Waltham).
