Below are all of Rick's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Wales is fully digital, what is the reason for the delay in more HD channels ... freeview puts out Al Jazeer, Russian TV, and porn channels ... I'm sure Joe Public would prefer more HD instead.

The Kilvey Hill (Swansea, Wales) mast is not one of the extended Freeview HD (COM7 and COM8) transmitters, and the limited HD channels reduced last week by BBC 3 dropping.
What plans are there for Kilvey becoming an extended Freeview transmitter ?

You programme some items that have not seen the light of day for many years.
A suggestion would be one of local interest.
A Dennis Potter Play - broadcast in 1966, wholly filmed in Swansea, and so much of the area - so much of the area featured has now changed - be good to see it again.
The item is "Where the buffalo roam" - by Dennis Potter, featuring Hywell Bennett.
As far as I can tell, it was last broadcast in July 1993 ... so long overdue for an airing.

My local Transmitter Kilvey Hill only puts out a subset of the channels that are available elsewhere, and currently, for example 12 of the HD channels are not available.
Who decides what channel are broadcast, and is there somewhere to register dissatisfaction/ request improvement.
Most people have invested in HD TV and yet are only getting 5 HD channels - not very good.
