Sorry, one of the frequencies was wrong, corrected now.

I've got the second lot (including Spotlight which is all that matters to me really) but can't get any signal out of the first frequency?

No problems accessing both transponders here.

EDIT: Ah, no wonder. Made another mistake. Both frequencies begin with 10. Edited 1st post again, sorry!

It seems that East Midlands and North East and Cumbria have been given the wrong label. The two letters after the channel name indicate the city where the regional centre is. NC should be Newcastle/North East and Cumbria, and NT should be Nottingham/East Midlands, but they are the other way around.

Ugh, South East Today is still that awful mustard colour, how sad for them all.

The only English region I'm interested in that wasn't already available in England from pressing red/blue is Spotlight, which is nice to see. But I may as well delete Look North Newcastle with C***l M***a, cos I fear I may go blind.

Just make sure you have the Kleenex handy, and enough cash for the dry cleaners.

Yipee Spotlight in DSAT at last.!! Laughing

Time for some reviews from Forumers who wouldn't normally see regions such as the south west?

Were they all in true 16:9? I think Nottingham has a proper digital suite so East Midlands Today should be.
