[Highlight] THE ME BIT![/highlight]
I do not have a website for you to look at of my own, so I thought I would use this bit to thank everyone for their kind words given that I have taken over the thread. I will continue to update this but will probably need some help as we go along, and where necessary. The kind words are most appreciated. Thanks again - Jimbo

11.053 H: FEC now ¾

Yes, it's on 528 or 544 depending on whether the HD swap applies. I understand this is now testing on Virgin.
The listing is correct as it is based on must launch dates incorporated either within the original licence award or the formal licence granted by Ofcom shortly before a station goes on air. No formal licence has been granted for either the Manchester or Preston & Blackpool stations as yet and therefore the must launch date remains as set out in the original licence award document (although now exceeded).
The end June date to which you refer is simply when That's TV says it expects to be able to launch the stations, it is not an official Ofcom requirement regarding launch. Indeed the last that was heard was that Ofcom was still in discussion with the formal licence holder (Your TV). Until those discussions are complete or there is any formal announcement the official must launch date remains as stated.
That's TV also have a poor record as regards their anticipated launch dates. That's Solent had an original Ofcom must launch date of 22 October 2014 but didn't launch until 26 November. That's Oxford had an initial must launch date of 5 November 2014 - that has been twice postponed with the current date Thursday this week. In its original applications That's TV claimed an anticipated launch date for both stations of 1 January 2014. I would therefore take the June date with a pinch of salt - a large one!
12.304 H SR 27500 FEC 2/3 DVB-S QPSK
9604 - no signal
This SID used to be on 10.744 H, associated with Irish Public Service TV
12.304 H, 27.500, 2/3, DVB-S, QPSK.
'Sky Poker.com' label has now been removed.
Thanks.
Can you provide a source for this statement?
thanks.
Thanks.
The channels currently listed in the initial post on this thread on 11.642 V conflicting with the Arqiva test card have now moved to 11.389 H, SR 27500 FEC 2/3 QPSK DVB-S
The labels
20700
20705
20710
20715
20720
20725
20730
are now on 11.389 H
Also, FEC on 12.266 H has changed from 2/3 to 5/6
Going from 2/3 to 5/6 at an SR of 27500 will free up a fair bit of bandwidth, from 33.79mb to 42.2mb, that’s a fair increase. Quick calculations make that for every four DVB-S TP’s changed it could free enough bandwidth for closing a single DVB-S TP and Sky need to save a few quid.
A quick tot up makes 16 DVB-S TP's Sky rented (including 3x D band Spots on 10.744H, 10.876V and 10.921H), so this could free up three of them. Some expats on the fringes will need to improve C/N or fall 'off the edge' of coverage.
I am getting a "No Signal" message when Scanning 11.389 Ghz H, I guess labels were removed.
EPG information shows that Psychics Live (890) closes down at 10pm on 31st March.
The '..programmes no longer available' message is shown in the listings from this time.
I didn't see that coming

Hi Digi Man! Im fine, and you? Im not as active on here as I used to be....but I still keep up to date with all the goings on! Yeah it is a shame, the days of plenty of new launches are over it seems...
did anyone actually watch it, every time i have been on there, about two times, its just a load of rubbish.:D
The info is in the NIT but the transponder is not yet modulated!
Are SES Astra letting broadcasters have a field day with FEC? If they all pushed the boat out like this it would be quite interesting to see where we end up with it all!
42.2Mbps is almost as much as a DVB-S2 TP under normal parameters!
