[QUOTE="Adam792, post: 1130664, member: 330868"] My memory might be playing tricks but I'm fairly sure I took a look at the Intelsat 27.5°W version of BBC One SD in the later part of last year (after the Bilsdale incident) and it was carrying the NE&C version. When I've looked at it before that it's carried a "network" version of BBC One that isn't otherwise broadcast anywhere - it has the BBC News Channel stuff at 1:30pm/6:30pm rather than any regional news. In the morning I'd guess it carried London like BBC One HD does but I never checked that to be sure. I'm guessing they have it set-up so that it can be quickly replaced with whatever version of BBC One SD they want at short notice, depending on which transmitters are at fault. I did have a look for the local radios to see if they were hidden in the Intelsat transponder stream somewhere, but there was no sign of them, so that probably does remain the best way of telling if something is being fed via satellite or not!
