Talking Pictures is no longer on Ch 33(570Mhz) on the Mendip Xmitter. The company website says it's changed frequency to increase coverage, but does anybody know the channel group it has moved to?

StevensOnln1: Thanks! I have moved all the channels to the order that's logical to me, with all the shopping and religious channels now in the 300+ range, so a complete retune takes a long while to set up again. Retuning one channel saved loads of hassle.

MikeP:
There have been recent problems in my area (North Cadbury, Somerset BA22) with drop outs in HD. This may be related to the new channel changes. A total retune seems to have cured the problem.
However WARNING: I receive regions West (Mendip), South West and Wales. Most TVs will ask which region you want in cases like this. I found that many channels were missing after retune, and these needed manual retuning.

Freeview channel allocations seem to be changing at a furious rate. A few weeks ago I copied the channel allocations from Channel listings | Freeview . PBS America had disappeared, and the list I copied said it was on COM8 which is transmitter channel 56. I manually re-tuned today, but this gave me PBS+1 ! When I went back to the Freeview list, PBS is now on ARQ B. I had similar problems on other missing channels. It seems like Freeview are determined to make retuning as difficult as possible!
