Satellite TV set-up

Hi with bbc you now need hd sat reciever to pick up there channels they have changed from sl 

My understanding is that the SD channels will still be available until 2024 but not on the Freesat menu. Currently they are available on transponder 10803Ghz horizontal polarised, coded 22000. All that is required to receive these SD channels is to pick up this free to air transponder. First check the reveiver is set up to receive this channel and then either do a complete search for all free to air channels or manually search for this individual frequency.

I don't have a Freesat box, just a Sky+ HD box and recently 'channel 1' has become (for us) BBC 1 SW HD...The former generic BBC 1 (sd) has now moved into the 800 range...

this was to allow the HD version (required by more customers I guess) to become the default and therefore sorted to the top of the list.

another change is that the local programs after the news have all become HD versions, something the BBC have been moving towards for a while.

I bought my hd box on Amazon £39 use it at home and in motorhome .my mate also uses this method with his avtex tv which he had trouble with having to reprogram each time he switched it on .works perfect now
