Below are all of StevensOnln1's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Richard Cooper: Vintage TV launched on Freeview this morning. If you are still seeing QVC+1 on 86 then you should retune. Vintage TV is on the COM7 multiplex, which requires a TV or box capable of receiving HD channels. If you already receive BBC News HD on 107 you will be able to receive Vintage TV on 86 but may need to retune if your TV/box isn't displaying the new channel.

Caroline: iPlayer is a BBC service which only carries programs from the BBC and S4C. Pick is owned by Sky who provide their own catchup service through Sky Go (http://go.sky.com) however a subscription is required.

Kayhatton: What other connectors are there on the back of your TV and recorder? You may just need to use a different type of cable or an adaptor.

Steve: A few local TV channels are on Sky but none so far are available on Freesat. The ones available on Sky are all currently encrypted so although no subscription is required, you still need a Sky box with viewing card to watch the channels and they can't be manually tuned in on a Freesat box either.

Murray: You can get it on Freeview if you get reception from the Kilvey Hill transmitter. You may need to retune your TV or set top box if Bay TV Swansea isn't already showing on channel 8.

John: Bay TV Swansea is not available on Sky or Freesat. It is currently only on Freeview from the Kilvey Hill transmitter and Virgin Media cable in the Swansea area. Apparently there are plans for Bay TV to broadcast from the Carmel transmitter in the future, but no date has been announced that I've seen.
Phil Bowen: Suggest you contact Bay TV directly, this website is for technical help with reception problems and is not related to any broadcaster.
Chris.: You should find that Channel 4 has moved to position 7 in the channel list (previously occupied by BBC3). If it isn't there but ITV is working on position 3 then you should carry out a reset and full retune on your TV or Freeview box.

Priscilla: It's due to be on channel 159 on Virgin Media although a recent post on the channel's Facebook page suggests it won't be available on cable for a few weeks
Rob lewis: Many of the other local TV channels have attracted similar comments. I doubt all of them will survive long term without major improvement.
Bay TV Swansea don't seem to have a website online yet, however their Facebook page is at Update Your Browser | Facebook for anyone trying to find contact details etc

steve: Vintage TV was previously a streamed channel using your internet connection. That service closed when the broadcaster decided to launch recently as a regular channel on the COM7 multiplex, which along with COM8 is a temporary service due to close in mid 2020 and will not be added to any transmitters beyond the 30 which already broadcast COM7 & COM8.

Bath DAB seems to be missing coverage overlays.
