You seem to have overlooked this matter regarding the retune Sean.....

Some viewers who receive their Freeview service from a relay transmitter will no longer be able be able to receive ITV3 and ITV4. As a result of moving position on the Freeview platform, a small percentage of homes will find they lose these services after retuning.

Some would consider that to be a blessing

Hmmm, that might affect me then as my transmitter is Dover, which is a relay from Bluebell Hill.

For the 9200 I assume it is just a matter of doing an automatic scan. Any comment anyone?
