They've got licensed frequencies with one or more receive points on high buildings around London.
Some sat trucks are equipped to receive the helicams directly.
How are the pictures from the chopper linked back to base?

Think so. Thought it rather effective letting the pictures 'speak for themselves'
Was it meant to end in silence?

Viewers hungry for news of the London riots on Tuesday provided Sky News with its biggest audience since the Iraq war a decade ago, while the BBC News channel claimed its highest-ever viewing figures.
BSkyB said Sky News had a reach of 6.81 million viewers for its coverage on Monday, its biggest daily audience figure since 7.3 million that tuned in to watch Iraq war coverage in 2003. This figure is based on the number of viewers who tuned to Sky News for at least 15 minutes during the day.
BBC News channel attracted a record daily 15-minute reach of 8.8 million – ahead of its previous high of 8.5 million on 11 March during coverage of the Japanese earthquake and tsunami – with the London audience at 3.3 million.
Sky News had a peak audience of 1.341 million viewers (a 6.1% share) in the half hour from 10pm and averaged more than 1 million between 9pm and midnight.
BBC News channel's audience peaked at 1.709 million (6.8%) in the 9pm hour, dipping back just below 1 million in the hour from 11pm.

And trying to do a Jeremy Paxman interview style with a Hip Hop Artist, badly! I can't see the next couple of hours on Sky being extremely well anchored, not been impressed by what I've seen in the past 5 minutes alone from her.
As I write this, the O/B has gone down with Kay in Ealing, didums.

Ha! Her live feed has just died complete with a loud buzzing noise.
Perhaps someone tazered her.
We can only hope.
