Really has appeared; CNN has gone

On Mux C in London.
To be more precise CNN has lost its LCN and NIT/SDT entry and remains as a caption until a retune occurs. Most boxes will not then recognise it.
Really is just a placeholder on LCN20 for now.
There are no other changes I can see.

I did not see this thread.So I will link it to my posted in The Freeview Changelog.
Do we really need to re-tune on August 2nd.Like it says on the mheg caption?
As the channel is aimed at women, which includes you freeview33, that is self explanatory.
Fairly obvious I suppose or else they would be broadcasting already. I agree that Turner are making a big mistake. I wonder if the price of a Freeview slot has gone up?
I do find it surprising that we get two more obscure less well-known news services on DTT like Russia Today and Al Jazeera, but not CNN.
CNBC would be much better than CNN. Add Euro News and Bloomberg too.
The Really screen reads "New channel REALLY coming soon to Freeview..." when as an old channel it should read "New to Freeview REALLY channel is coming soon".
l can confirm that CNN has entirely disappeared from the Mendip transmitter's output and that on LCN 20 now has a placeholder for Really:

New channel REALLY coming soon to
Freeview channel 20 on 2nd August.

Is there any way you can complement Freeview with Freesat so that you can still get CNN, Dancc? That's what l've done.
As for the other two channels that you've mentioned, l quite like Al Jazeera as it's a modern and professional news channel. Alas, the same cannot be said for Russia Today which is a waste of space propaganda channel with low standards of integrity.
Pontop Pike Transmitter.

If you're referring the caption on channel 20, the reference to retuning was removed about 1 1/4 hours after the caption went live.
well unless i missed something, in this thread it doesn't say that the screen was changed, which is why i posted.
there does seem to be a clique that if anybody else posts get immediatley shouted down. I would recommend some kind of chill pill perhaps?
In what way does the previous comment constitute shouting down?
(The MHEG/caption change was mentioned in post 7 and 8, although it will not have necessarily been clear that the reference to retuning was the bit that had changed.)
If the BBC-B (post DSO) mux is the Freeview HD mux, then Mux C/Arq-A mux can be the "Freeview LD" mux
