The BBC 1 are stopping regional SD channel broadcasting and only going to HD channels. If you have Sky or Humax box then they will automatically update the channel when the frequency changes. If you have a different type of box then you need to rescan the channels.

No prob with Ch5, though.

As mentioned BBC have migrated their channels to HD. AS such, a channel rescan will be needed to get the BBC channels back.

C5 changed frequencies back in OCt or Nov 2022...so again, a rescan will get them back on their new frequency

Actually,. they are transmitting SD channels but with no local programming until March 2024.
