Charlie: NOTE: The commercial multiplexes at Sandy Heath will remain on their pre-switchover channels and powers for a period after digital switchover. SDN will then temporarily move to channel 31 (at 20kW ERP) on 31 Aug 2011, before adopting its final allocation of channel 51 on 18th April 2012. Arqiva A will adopt its final allocation of channel 52 on 23 Nov 2011. Arqiva B will no longer temporarily move to channel 67 (at 20kW ERP) during the third quarter of 2011, it will adopt its final allocation of channel 48 on 14 Sept 2011. NOTE: D3&4 and HD use transitional S1 antenna until 27 June 2012.

Doug Brown: In theory Sky Sports 1 and 2 should be on the ArqB (COM6) multiplex, but there is conflicting information from Digital UK about this.
COM is the prefix for the three commercial multiplexes (COM4=SDN, COM5/6=ArqA/B) that do no appear on the public-service only relay transmitters.

Chris Hay: The ITV1 HD service will have these regional components at some point in the future. Use the SD ITV1 channel for your local news.

TheWoodman: I would think replacing the DTR0207 with a new Freeview+ or Freeview+HD box is a good option.

Tony Hewitt: You need to use this process then - My Freeview box has no EPG, is blank on FIVE, ITV3, ITV4, ITV2+1, has no sound or the channel line up is wrong | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice - on your TV set.
