    @MarkKen20510303 I wonder how long it will be before they want a TV station on Freeview/Freesat? Ofcom won't mind, they're happy to have rightist lies and hate rammed down people's throats.

    @brianwinteruk I remember updating Freeview, half of the channels never came back & it always had to be scanned a few times.

  • Houseofclinick Pete Clinick (@Houseofclinick) reported

    @BathCA @JackDeBath @sidcot Yes the mobile reception in Bath can be patchy, especially EE, but for years the TV reception on the south side of the valley has been crap, very few Freeview channels are available from the transmitter on Bathampton Down. Nobody seems to have ever worried about that.

    @FactsStomp @cleanfeed_ttvr Depends when they updated the EPG. Sky updates within minutes. Freeview and Freesat can take a hour or two. Virgin doesn't support dynamic updates so only updates if it days ahead

    @AvonandsomerRob Never took the Sky pill. Told them I didn’t want to fund the Murdoch revolution! When Freeview came along there were enough channels and now predominantly use catch up and YouTube. Just need to tell the BBC to FO now!

    @cleanfeed_ttvr @Ofcom I genuinely don't understand why Freeview seems to be resolutely stuck with DVBT1. Surely at this point the vast majority of STBs and TVs support DVBT2? We just need 1 mux with channels 1-5 & filler for SD only sets & finally let Freeview have a half decent picture quality again
