Odd to give S4C the BBC3 HD slot on Freeview now BBC3 is coming back when they could have had it after 7pm since 2016 (as BBC Scotland does). Not the long term solution though - but seems to be no long term plans at all for HD on @FreeviewTV with another HD mux will close soon.

@jamesdoeser @bectu @MegaphoneUK The problem as most media are discussing, no viable alternative has been proposed handling issues of vast amount of free-to-air radio & television the BBC broadcasts, with no infra-structure technology that would enable any kind of charging mechanism for radio or freeview

@DaveOufc They could do it like Freeview - core channels are free, then you can choose to pay for add-ons. All this tech exists, they've just never had to consider it before

@TalkingPicsTV Interesting, is that mandated by Freeview or was there a functional incentive to move down the band?

In the meantime, transfering the signal to a more sturdy temporary mast will result in 2,500 households losing Freeview, mostly near the Durham coast. This is because the mini-mast isn't tall enough to clear the edge of the North York Moors, blocking line of sight. -2-

@OhBlimey Never on before 4pm, rarely on after 10pm. No news or current affairs. Sky Arts (via Freeview) or BBC4 when possible. The soaps basically are just *on*, not heavily invested in.

@itvnews I complained about that awful erectile disfunction advert that appears on some Freeview channels, sometimes in the day & at teatimes, when kids will be watching & they didn't do anything! They said it was fine. It's not nice when young grandkids ask what erectile disfunction is!

We have freeview signal this evening. Yay. The only downside is that when there's no signal I get to control the remote and choose the channel because the OH has no idea how to get on iplayer, netflix or prime. He'd spend about an hour just finding something to watch

@ParodyFPL @TransponderTV I'm sure nothing, other than a removal of channels as the BBC shuts them down or otherwise makes them unavailable on Freeview, which appears inevitable.
