I would but their update link isnt working!
Whoops! ![]() I prefer Flysat myself (although KoS has the best Search features). Apparently Lyngsat do get some input from the likes of SES, so don't rely entirely upon hobbyists etc. |

I emailed KoS the other day about the changes. They must be on holiday as they are usually fairly prompt.

From my understanding from talking to ex-colleagues working within ITV. the long term plan is to merge the local programming for Westcountry and West into 1 super news programme. when this happens the westcountry will then get its own HD variant.
what i mean with this is : at the moment, you currently have West Country West (former westcountry tv area) and West Country East (former HTV). i.e. 2 SD feeds. they are planning to merge both east and west feeds to be still broadcast at Bristol. when Ofcom approves this move they will then give us the localised HD variant. |

Meridian has a similar set-up. |

Ive just noticed on freetime that the ITVHD logo has changed to plain text, but also all my planned recordings have disappeared.
So you guys might want to check yours too. Edit: I've actually just noticed that I now have ITVHD Meridian South East ![]() Now if only BBC could hurry up and get me BBC1HDSouth East. |

Im glad to see that freesat now has access to the same FTA PSB channels and their HD counterparts as Sky does.
Even better as far as freesat goes, HD swapping is on all HD boxes, whereas with Sky HD swapping for FTA HD channels, only happens if you have a HD sub! One up for freesat! |

Who knows... but then they still haven't even mapped all the SD regions on Freesat, even though they're FTA. Anglia West for example.
