    Lost about 8 channels out of 18 in the last week - they had a scrolling message about changing frequency in the last few days so just retune I'd say, haven't tried yet myself.

    http://support.upc.ie/app/answers/detail/a_id/320/~/analogue-switch-off
    Analogue switch off (ASO) refers to the turning off of Ireland's terrestrial analogue TV service. This is due to take place at the end of 2012. At that time this service will be replaced with a new Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT) service called Saorview.

    ASO will have absolutely no impact to any customers receiving their TV service from UPC. UPC operates a standalone network with our own separate signal for RTE ONE, RTE TWO, TV3 and TG4. As these networks operate independently from the national analogue service it will not be impacted by the national analogue switch off campaign. These channels will continue to be available on UPC networks in both analogue and digital formats.

    If you currently receive your analogue TV service from UPC this service will continue to be available in its current format after the national analogue switch off takes place. You will not need to make any changes to your service or purchase any additional equipment.


    Once the RTE Two HD channel is made available on the UPC platforms all customers with a HD box and a subscription to a HD pack will be able to view this HD channel. Although discussions to release this channel onto the UPC platform are ongoing UPC cannot confirm a launch date at this time.
