    ok first please do not post in the sky uk new channels thread again. it is only for updates.

    now as for CH 4 HD it has moved frequency as in april it will be moving to freesat. as for the frequency it now occupies i am not sure as i dont have a E2 box to do the scan needed and none of the frequency sites have it yet either.

    no worries.

    CH 4 HD is now broadcasting on 12.606 from what i have heard, although there is no epg etc for it yet.

    where are you located ? as there is no problem. this channel has moved to a freesat transponder and as a result it has a much tighter footprint meaning people outside of the uk may no longer receive the channel without moving to a bigger dish.

    Hi,

    I have rescanned on the vu and could not pick up Ch 4 HD!

    I also tested on my Sky + box and it says that no satellite signal is being received! Can anyone else pick this channel up on a Sky box?

    after scanning, have you gone to the Last Scanned bouquet & picked CH4 HD from there?

    its now on a tighter beam so non uk residents will need a bigger dish to get it.

    Hi

    I've had to do a full rescan on my Vu+ Duo to find Channel 4 HD only have a 52% signal reading with a 1.1 mtr Dish. Itv1 HD is at 90%. The EPG is that of Zee Tv, hope Rytec can sort this out.

    Regards
