michael : Given that the community stations are on air, and carrying 80kbps over the net is almost no cost, it would make DAB a better consumer proposition and encourage commercial stations in the process.

Automatic postcode fixes
Tuesday 26 July 2011 12:24PM

Everyone - I can't obfuscate the postcodes in the URL links, as they are passed to other sites. The "old way" of masking thing using "urlencoding" (such as %41 for "A") is undone by the browser these days for security reasons.

When I last looked into it, as a postcode does not identify a person, but group of several tens of addresses, there are no security problems using them.

As per the Privacy policy | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice :

"This site will ask you personal information about yourself (your postcode and email address) to make possible the services on our website. Such services include message boards and ukfree.tv Freeview prediction.

By entering your details in the fields requested, you enable the ukfree.tv site to provide you with the services you select. We will treat that information in accordance with this policy and in accordance with the law and Internet best practice. "

Mark A.: Actually, BBC America shows quite a few programmes from Channel 4 too. Today "Gordon Ramsay's F Word", "Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares". Also, "Dragons' Den" and "Top Gear" (BBC TWO), "Star Trek: The Next Generation" (CBS Action, I think), "Battlestar Galactica", "My Big Breasts and Me" (BBC three).

The schedules is at BBC America - TV Schedule .

Ash: I've moved the thick line to -58 dB(uV/m) and the shaded area to -65dB(uV/m) and I think the Details of 11B/Sussex Coast DAB multiplex | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice map matches the reference much better:

Ash: Yes, sorry, I realised just after I posted the original comment that I had misunderstood the comments underneath the map.

I think DAB - Digital Audio Broadcasting | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice now matches the map you kindly provided a link to.
