KB Aerials Sheffield : I do have to say that to "not notice" the digital switchover requires you to:
1) Ignore the six months of billboard adverts
2) Watch analogue TV and miss those constant overlay messages
3) Turn on Freeview and dismiss every time the on-screen messages
4) Ignore the adverts online, on TV and on radio
5) Miss all the stuff in the local press
Which must require a very special effort.

Plucky: Wharfdale is on the "9am" list, so you should hold off retuning until then, as it is possible that there are still tests being done.

Alan: That's it, there will be no changes until perhaps 2013-16 if the "lower DDR range" is used for new Freeview services, and the 2013 introduction of a local TV service.
