Natalie Kay: If you stop paying for Multiroom, the box will become fSfS ("Freesat from Sky") automatically. You don't need to do anything at all.

keith: Indoor aerial are very poor for reliable Freeview reception. Sometimes you can place them by a suitable window and receive a partial service, most often not.

jb38: If you look at your location page, for example - Find out how to receive Freeview and Freeview HD | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice - it lists all the "used" frequencies.
What there used to be and I forgot to re-implement it when I rewrote the system, was a simple list of the "unused" frequencies.
The idea was to suggest the "best" of the "free" ones, ie those adjacent to digital multiplexes or two separated from analogue services.
Freeview multiplexes look like "snow" to analogue, so the profile means it's OK to use the adjacent channel.
Analogue generates sideband interference onto the adjacent channel caused by the frame-sync and fly-back peak frequencies in the TV information.
As I can grab the information as XML from the backend, it should be easy enough to do.
But I've also got the radio pages to sort out... and to also regenerate the whole database in 100m zones.

Shirley: If you could JUST connect the aerial to the DVD only, and then JUST the HDMI from the DVD to the TV.

aerialman: Lark Stoke - I contacted Ofcom and (c) should read "BBCB", it says this on the Freeview on Lark Stoke TV transmitter | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice page.
Arfon matches the Ofcom document at 2kW. The maps have not yet been regenerated as that takes several days and the code still needs fixing.
