@Sonic_Sinclair @bbcmicrobot Technically it is, there's support for it in DVB. There's several channels on DVB satellite that uses it, not sure there's any on freeview. Certainly all the original services shutdown or moved to MHEG. The BBC mheg service was incredible but that's shutdown now too 🙁

@FreeviewAdvice Can you help me please. I am now relying on Freeview. My tv has HD but Freeview isn’t. How do I get my Freeview into HD. It’s not a pleasure to watch. Thank you.

One bad thing about #Freeview TV is all the begging adverts. Ignore em all, ain't contributing towards inflated staff salaries. Plenty of local little charities.

@sophielouisecc I have never seen GBNews, mainly because we have no coverage here from it on Freeview Lite. But I have never spoken to anyone who has watched it?

@ThatTimWalker @skytv Was thinking of cancelling Sky and going back to Freeview as never anything on worth watching. This just about confirms it!

@thejohnnylowe @riceuten @ArchRose90 Quote some audited figures, all the ones I have seen show they are well behind BBC News and Sky News. Never seen GB News because of its lack of national coverage on Freeview.

@GBNEWS Why is the reception on Freeview 236 rubbish in Rochdale, but I can get all other channels with no problem??

@PullarStrecker yeah, that's an interesting development. The market for watching NZ's so-called terrestrial TV channels seems a bit uncertain right now with the Freeview on demand service set to end, and Sky might be one of the better options.
