John Hewitt: At the moment, Freeview HD uses the extra audio capacity to provide audio description, and not an additional 5.1 stream, as is found, as you say, on satellite.
It's not NICAM, of course, that is a system used only with analogue television. The word you are looking for is "stereo".

Anne: It sounds very much like a common problems for people in strong signal areas: too strong a signal.
If you have a booster or amplifier in your system, remove it and rescan.
If all you have is a rooftop aerial connected directly to the set (or set top box) you can fit a small cheap device called an "attenuator" that will reduce the signal levels.

Rod: If you want all the Freeview channels, then use a group C/D aerial pointing at the Angus transmitter. If you aerial is on the roof you should have excellent reception from Angus.
