KMJ,Derby: All current Ofcom documents also show ArqB on C40. "Digital Switchover
Transmitter Details, Yorkshire Region, Issue 2.0" from January 2011 has the change, as does the current version 4 of "Digital Terrestrial Broadcasting Stations for Multiplex Licences" issued on 26 July. Earlier versions of that document still had C50.
Ofcom | Digital Switchover Transmitter Details
Ofcom | Supplementary licence documents in relation to DSO
The change will be to allow something else to use C50, probably one of Waltham's multiplexes will move here after international clearance is obtained, in order to free up C61 or C62 for 4G mobiles.

KMJ,Derby: Thanks. Probably a typo as the Ofcom documents have to be retyped by hand.

Mike Dimmick: As I recall, C50 is usually moved to C40, as C50 is cleared to make way for C61/C62 as a direct swap from C61/C62 to C39/C40 would change the "group" of the transmission.
