Si: No, as I said above, this is a public service transmitter and the list above is all there is every going to be.

If you want more channels, use Freesat/Freesat HD/Freesat+HD.

C21 (474.0MHz) after switchover

christopher: I doubt you need an aerial upgrade, it really depends on the transmitter you are using.

If you are using The Wrekin, then you simply need to wait until September for the ArqB multiplex to go to full power.

Bill Pine: As above "After the PSB multiplexes switch at The Wrekin, the Arqiva multiplexes will remain on their pre-switchover frequencies and powers, and SDN will use a temporary frequency, for a short period before all three multiplexes adopt their final frequencies and powers during September 2011. During this transition period the commercial multiplexes will use the following frequencies: SDN ch49 and ch31 (both 2kW), Arqiva A ch57 (not 53) (1kW), Arqiva B ch53 (not 57) (1kW). "

jay: If the relays were on the same frequencies then they would interfere with the original transmission, which would be totally useless. It would only be possible to do this (use Single Frequency Networks) if the masts were moved to different locations and everyone moved their aerial.

The public service transmitters (relays) are not repeaters ("active defectors" is technical term) but transmitters in their own right.

As I was always told "You know what thought did - Followed a muck-cart and thought it was a wedding".
