caroline purdie: Not all boxes have the seven day guide, but most new ones do. I would try My Freeview box has no EPG, is blank on FIVE, ITV3, ITV4, ITV2+1, has no sound or the channel line up is wrong | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice and if that doesn't fix it ask the shop to supply a box of a different make or model that does have the extended guide.

mike Roberts : Not sure what you mean there, BBCA is now at full power (174kW) and the other five multiplexes will output from that power level from a week Wednesday. Well, almost, "ArqB subject to reactive power reduction of 87kW".

Terry Mahon: Actually, "2k" and "8k" do not refer to "packets of information", they refer to the number of subcarriers the signal, which occupies and 8MHz block, is split into.
In fact 2k refers to 1705 and 8k to 6817.
You can (sort of) think of the signal as being split into 4kHz or 1kHz signals. This can be done because as the signals are digital and have two possible levels (0 and 1) the effect of sidebands can be ignored, which certainly isn't true if they were analogue signals.
Whilst information in the multiplex is carried in packets, this is not part of the CODFM system, but a "higher level", the MPEG-2 transport stream.
