Freesat reverts to fiction:

Comparing Freesat 26-01-2016 14 53.txt and Freesat 27-01-2016 05 51.txt

Changed:
11426.50 H 27500 2/3 DVB-S QPSK 028.5E :TSID = 2315 --> 11427.83 H 27500 2/3 DVB-S QPSK 028.5E :TSID = 2315

The frequency of 11427.83 belonged to Eurobird, long since departed. The frequency of the ASTRA replacement is 11426.50.

The claim was made that a mechanism existed to find the Freesat Home transponder. Well, maybe, but does it work, and is it implemented by all Freesat devices? Lying about the frequency doesn't inspire confidence.


Bangla TV is back on the BSkyB box:

is running with empty Service Information tables again. This means the channels have no names or numbers.

If the channels are already stored, this could go unnoticed, but if the frequency is rescanned, loss of the channels is a likely outcome.

Susan Noble: I think the Freeview and Freesat EPGs are probably wrong.

Freeview EPG: 061 True Entertainment, Sat 30 Jan 13:00 - 15:00 : A Baby For Sale

Freesat EPG: True Ent, Sat 30 Jan 13:00 - 15:00 : A Baby For Sale

SKY: True Ent, Sat 30 Jan 13:00 - 15:00 The Thorn Birds
Description: Devotion and desire...greed and ambition...form the conclusion of

this sweeping epic based on Colleen McCullough's best-selling novel. Richard

Chamberlain and Rachel Ward star. 6/6.

Website says same as SKY - see these:

The Thorn Birds - True Channels
