Motors TV removed from Ch 71 (COM7/ARQ C)

adultxxx has closed. channel 183

Africa Free Tv has been removed.

Insight Radio is now RNIB Connect on LCN730

Kix now appeared on LCN127 and launches April 7th.

Also True Crime on CH60.

Changes on LTV MUX (observed via London/Crystal Palace but presumed replicated elsewhere):
True Movies 1 (LCN 82) ceased
Two additions: True Crime (LCN 60, now running programming) and Kix (LCN 127) with a holding slide in video ahead of 7 April launch. Other Sony/CSC channels continue on 32, 48, 61 as before.
Unclear from here what has changed on GMAN where LCNs 60 and 127 were previously allocated, someone in Manchester will fill the gaps soon I'm sure...

True Movies 1 has moved to the Manchester mux. I don't have any information beyond that.

Manchester MUX update from Greebo:

8th stream added & some renumbering...

True Movies 1 has been added as a new stream on LCN 82, same LCN as it had previously on the network of local muxes.

Chart Show TV has moved to LCN 85 (was 60)
POP+1 has moved to LCN 128 (was 127)
Tiny Pop+1 has moved to LCN 129 (was 128)

Capital TV remains on LCN 56
Heart TV remains on LCN 54
ShowBizTV remains on LCN 80
mov4men+1 remains on LCN 50

It would be most useful if Local Mux changes were all highlighted in some way.

Motors TV on LCN 241 is now a test card 😯

UPDATE

BBCA

"BBC Three" has been relabelled as blank.

BBCB

"BBC Three HD" has been relabelled as blank

Both channels have been removed, as I reported in post #1789.

Animated BBC logo being broadcast on CBBC channel 120 & in HD on 123.

Actually, Jimbo is correct, the service names are now blank in the Program Map Table but the services are still present.

A technical note: The channels *should be* removed on retuning (on most equipment) as they are no longer present in the Network Information Table service list or the LCN tables and have been removed from the Service Description Table.

The "BBC Three has moved online" information slates are still present for anyone who hasn't retuned and on some equipment which automatically deletes channels but only after they are completely removed from the PMT.

Heart and Capital FM reduced bitrates from 128kb/s to 64kb/s Mono on 31st March (COM4/SDN)
