MJ Ray: "Black Cat" is still listed by Ofcom.
I have also fixed the missing stations, which was a problem with punctuation.

Judy Evans: If you have more than one Freeview box, you can put the filter between the aerial and the splitter (or amplifier, if you have one).
There's a one-in-a-million chance of being so badly affected that the filter won't work. If that's the case, at800 will install Freesat for you, gratis.

Adrian Taylor: It's nothing to do with "quality" and everything to do with the Treasury raising £2.34bn.. BBC News - Ofcom raises £2.34bn in 4G auction, less than forecast
Freeview isn't loss-making, but the profits made for the Treasury are lower. See Ofcom | Spectrum pricing for terrestrial broadcasting for details.

Ian Farrow: The Dave Ja Vu slot it on multiplex COM4/SDN, which is where Drama is expected to be.
The BBC are not allowed to use the PSB1 multiplex for "commercial" services provided by the BBC Worldwide/Scripts joint-venture.

Stephen Alden: I understand from BT that they will make their channels as widely available as possible.
However, as we don't know yet for sure where the Freeview capacity for the BT Sports channels is, it is possible that BT has obtained the capacity on the Freeview HD multiplex, PSB3/BBCB.
If this is the case, it won't be compatible with existing TUTV equipment.

karen moore: you need a new Freeview HD box, not a new aerial. See Northern Ireland RTE1, RTE2, TG4 special mini-multiplex from 24 October | Digital switchover | ukfree.tv - 10 years of independent, free digital TV advice please
