[QUOTE="RichardCoulter, post: 1081930, member: 387551"] I guess Channel 5 on transponder 64 was switched off as soon as digital terrestrial coverage was in place. I also remember radios 1-5 going onto Astra and it being said that, whilst the public could use them, they were intended for cable operators. ISTR that when the BBC decided to suddenly close them, this was the explanation given to domestic users. I've tried to search for more info but can only find a post saying that some BBC radio stations were broadcast on the audio subcarriers of CNBC for Dutch cable operators. If this was correct, I wonder why cable operators didn't simply use the SATBACK for them? Also, why wouldn't the Dutch cable operators simply use the feeds on the audio sub carriers of UK Living etc?
