Has anyone else in the central region been having trouble picing up Teachers TV & Red Hot?

We picked them up on Monday - lost them a few hours later, along with all the SDN channels, then a further rescan picked up Teachers TV - but not Red Hot, but as the Daewoo STB doesn't pick up subscription channels that should be right.

I know they are on the SDN mux, but what is Teachers TV and Red Hot time-sharing with?

I've managed to pick up Teachers TV here in Stoke on Trent, but Red Hot isn't showing up at all.

Same here in Nottingham - but my ITV3 is still on channel 802 and refuses to move to 34 where it's supposed to be. Anyone know why?

I've got Teachers' TV now, but still no Red Hot. (Birmingham Area)

I don't want Red Hot because I don't have Top-Up, but it would be nice to know I could pick it up if I upgraded (not that I would watch it anyway).

According to sources I have checked on the web, Teachers TV is broadcast during the downtime of one of the Discovery channels (in the Top-Up TV package) on channel 47, while the other prevoiusly mentioned channel (name blanked out) should be on ch. 61 (next to Television X).

You won't need TopUpTV to get Red Hot apparently. The encryption will be done through an MHEG application which you enter a pin number into to gain access to the channel.

Wasn't E4 supposed to be free-to-air?
