How to tune BBC FTV channels

Orion · 27-04-2003 08:26PM #1

Hi all,

I just discovered this site and have a quick q.

I see from some posts that it is possible to tune the BBC FTV channels on the Sky box using the other channels option.

How do I do this? Does anyone have the frequencies for them?

TIA,

Steve

BBC goes FTA from June 1st on..

At present you need to obtain a UK FTV card using a uk relation/friend to forward it on to ireland to view the other BBC channels.. more info on how to get one of these is contained in many other posts (use the search button to find one)

When it goes FTA then no card will be needed? Is that right? If so I'll hold off - it's only a nice to have anyway.

Thanks,

Steve

True, but the whole EPG thing will be a bit of a mystery

Hi Steve, we'll need the frequencies, for sure. We dont know them yet, though. Once we have them, we'll give a step by step guide.

I'm scanning on the PC Sat Card daily.
At the minute there are NO BBC FTA channels on 2D.

The FTA BBC Radio and BBC Parliament could be added by "Add Channels / Other Channels", today, but these frequencies will be wrong on 1st June since all these channels will m ove to 2D also which is different SR (22,000 not 27,500) and different frequencies.
