So why not have a selectable local service via the red button? that would have served a lot more people.

Not if for example the Waltham transmitter offered a red button service for Leicestershire,Nottinghamshire,Derbyshire etc it would serve a lot more people with relevant info. Getting rid of some of the useless adult channels and shopping channels would free up a lot of space, also reducing the number of +1 channels. I cant believe the red button service takes up that much band width anyway. I really don't think the digital system was thought out very well from the beginning.

As I said not very well thought out from the beginning was it.

Brian Wright, you are correct, the presant HD service is now about as good as the analogue service was 30 years ago!

Great anther round of finding a spare RF frequency for the SKY box, I moved it to 49 after the switchover at Waltham.

I'm going to be in a similar situation to Mark, I am running out of frequencies to set SKY RF2 output and CCTV output to.
