Made in Leeds is now on 117 in Region 08 (Emley Moor transmitter area)
Is there some sort of map anywhere online that shows the region areas by those numbers?
"10010" has now been relabelled as 'ITV'.
'ITV' (Central South) has now changed transponders, moving from 11.053 H, 22.000, 5/6 to 10.832 H, 22.000, 5/6.
See here for the maps

Hope that helps.
Thanks.
Anyone know what this means?
It appeared at the start of The Chase at 5pm. It isn't appearing during ads, so may be something burnt in to this episode of The Chase.
Still at 22000 5/6 DVB-S QPSK but no channels on it any more.
I will keep an eye on it.
Ah so the only thing that has changed is the channels left, its still illuminated at the same parameters for now.
It will be interesting to see what ITV now do with it!
12.207 V, 27.500, 2/3.
