    They originally said August. I doubt that is achieveable now.

    I did a retune on my Freeview box today and found STV Edinburgh transmitting a promo. video on Channel 23.

    I also found "Motors TV UK" on Channel 71

    Receiving from Craigkelly

    Was configured on 4th December, ready for launch in "early January".

    Sadly just from Craigkelly; those in Edinburgh receiving from Black Hill will not get the channel (the frequency allocated for local TV which could be used for Edinburgh local TV from Black Hill was advertised by Ofcom earlier this year for a potential Falkirk service; but I suspect that without any interest for a Falkirk service, we could see Black Hill transmitting STV Edinburgh in the future.)

    Curious. I receive it, but I was pretty sure that my signal came from Black Hill - hence STV constantly force-feeding me "News From The West" despite me living in the centre of Edinburgh.

    Signal bouncing off from somewhere? (How some aerials where I live can receive regional services from a completely different transmitter!) The local multiplex is likely to work at a much lower signal threshold due to its broadcast mode.
    Only STV Glasgow local TV is currently broadcast from Black Hill (westward beam).

    Edinburgh reception prognosis:
