    I used to get a channel called Mixed Entertainment which used to show BBC sport etc after it went off BBC1 or 2.

    Now there is nothing there, and its not listed in the Frequency Listings either.
    Has it disappeared or has it been renamed.
    Anyone know the new frequencies if it still exists.

    Thanks

    Jay

    They moved to a new frequency months ago.

    There is/was no channel called 'Mixed Entertainment', that must just be a category.

    The BBC interactive streams have to be tuned in & accessed as separate channels on a non-Freesat (or Sky) receiver.

    Hi,

    All I know is :-

    I have Triax FTA box.
    Channel 36 is labelled "Mixed Entertainment".
    This was on it when I got it, I assume preprogrammed.
    I did not do it, and neither did the supplier of the satellite set up.
    They just connected up the box and the various channels appeared.

    ????????????????

    Well, you asked for frequencies in your op & I provided this for the transponder carrying the BBC streams.

    If you don't know how to enter them in the receiver tuning menu, post the model no. & someone should be able to help.

    Will try it out.
