Mark Aberfan Aerials: It was generating an awful lot of spam email. I will look into doing a proper reporting system, probably this evening.

Mike: No amount of boosting is going to get an HD signal from Waltham or Nottingham.

Peter Newlands: For most people it should not be a problem.

Some people who are using boosters, amplifiers or even masthead amplifiers will have to disconnect these from their systems.

If you currently have a very high signal strength and don't have a booster/amplifier then you may have to fit an attenuator after switchover is complete.

These cost around a fiver.

Jez: There are no problems reported with the radio transmitters in your area at all.
Can you see the BBC - Reception problems page to report the problem to the BBC?

ConorMcDermott: Sorry, but UKTV have a contract with SSSL to provide encyrption and EPG services.

UKTV can either accept SSSL's terms and conditions and be in the EPG, or not.

Sky are not under any obligation to allow channels into the EPG if they don't wish to do so.

UKTV, like all other broadcasters must accept the conditions that Sky put on them.

Mark Aberfan Aerials: When I originally wrote the backend system, it was supposed to be multi-user, but I have never actually used it that way.

It might need a bit of updating to work properly for other users, but I'll have a look at this evening, as it might be useful for other people to be able to do certain things.
