Below are all of N.J. Anderson's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.If Talk TV has to disappear on Freeview, sadly as this may be as it is one less news and opinion channel, then cannot Ofcom permit the return of Russian TV as there is no reason why viewers should be denied the view of the other side in the conflict and also the present ban can be seen by some as a form of censorship in a free society.

It's still a pity that Talk TV are going from Freeview as for many Freevuew is the most convenient way to watch the channel.

As the BBC is a unique service in the UK and the world and from the beginning in its charter not to include any advertising as a form of revenue meaning no programme interruption it should be allowed to continue if only as an alternative to commercial broadcasting.

Why are community radio stations not included in your list? This would make your list truly comprehensive.

To make your list of radio stations in the UK complete you should surely include community stations many of which now broadcast with a higher reach than many local commercial stations.

Why do you not include a list of all community radio stations in the UK many of which broadcast with a higher power than some commercial stations?

Why does this column not also include a list of all community radio stations in the UK to make the list complete?

It seems that what is missing is the stations currently broadcasting on local DAB multiplexes around the UK which appears to include the local DAB multiplex broadcasting from Fort Widley near Portsmouth which currently carries over 20 stations so I understand that this is difficult but Ofcom would supply the names of all local broadcasters. I noticed however that the community FM stations appear to be all listed.

I understand that due to the close presence of French digital freeview the UK freeview service is restricted in the Channel Islands. Can you list which UK TV channels are available on freeview in the Islands?

The best thing about Freeview is that it can be received by all with a digital TV receiver with just a suitable receiver and not confined to those with smart TV receivers.
