Could someone tell me (sorry if this has been discussed before), if it is possibly to manually tune in all the other ITV1 regions on FreeSat, like it is on Sky?

Many thanks.

You can just change your postcode if you want a different area but if you want several ones, they are all available in non freesat mode.

It is, depending on your box.

A freesat box at most in freesat mode gives you two ITV1-SD regions your own at 103 and London ITV1 at 977 (included because it's the only one with an audio described track). Despite the post that says you can, you can't the only way to change the region at 103 is to change your postcode. You can re-allocate BBC regions using Customise Channels though.

As already said you can tune any of the fta regions using non-freesat mode (or whatever your box/tv calls it). You can't get the few ITV1 macro regions not on Astra 2D and consequently encrypted (free to view) a Sky box with a card is required for these

He never asked if you can tune it into channel 103 - just if you could tune it in. I never said you could replace it with channel 103.
