dcollard: Very hard to say without a full postcode. Digital signals are not effected by Inversion as often as analogue ones were.

ALL: One the switchover date, Wednesday 20th April 2011, the frequencies for the commercial multiplexes did not change.
However, following a retune event recently, the commercial multiplexes are now, like the PSB multiplexes, in a single-frequency network with two other transmitters.
This means that the BROMSGROVE transmitter is "out of group" for the commercial multiplexes - this means you need a WIDEBAND AERIAL NOW.
This is a UNIQUE situation, as most transmitters where this is the case also needed wideband BEFORE switchover.

nathan williams: The allocation of channel numbers are a valuable asset to the company that owns them, they are very literally "worth millions".
UKTV has retained ownership of 27 by broadcasting Dave Ja Vu for one hour during the night.
The allocations, by DMOL, cannot be changed or revoked whilst a channel remains in the EPG.
Unlike Sky, where Sky decides which channels go where, Freeview has no "dictator", but operates as "free market".

IanH: You now need a wideband aerial to receive all the multiplexes from the Bromsgrove transmitter.
