Les Nicol: To be fair, the Digital UK leaflets do show ALL optons: Freeview, fSfS, Freesat, Sky, Virgin, BT Vision and TUTV. http://www.digitaluk.co.u….pdf .

KB Aerials Sheffield : I've spent a lot of time in TV control rooms, and after a short period of time it just becomes "screens with stuff on them", as you only hear the sound if you make a special effort to pick out a service to monitor it.

After a while, seeing many channels on many screens the actual idea of watching a single channel seems .. bizarre.

I remember being in the BT Tower MCR and thinking that it all seems like a giant computer game where you just have to keep it all working and make sure it works again as quickly as possible if anything goes wrong...

Tigminor: Yes, it is quite likley that the shift in frequencies in other areas will suddenly allow digital services to break though.

High power analogue services will knock out a digital signal quite easily.
