No UKGold or UKTV Gold as it is now called on Freeview, I think Tits-Up TV
will carry this channel for a few minutes per day.

I see a radio station called UK Gold on freeview but it always seems to
be silent when I try it.

No TV station with that name though.

To email me remove the letter vee.

It's not a radio station, it's a channel holder for the TV channel, which
will launch as part of Top-Up.tv (which will hopefully fail)

"Hopefully fail"?
WHY?

You don't want it, so no one else should have it?
What is wrong with you people.


If it was up to you we'd all still be watching one BBC channel
(in 405 lines too I suspect).

Its a crap package that is noticeably reducing the picture quality of
the existing Freeview programmes.

Why is that? ONdigital used to have many more channels than Freeview
or indeed Freeview + TopUpTV. Was ONdigital worse quality images than
Freeview? (If it was, I can't tell the difference personally.)

Remember, many people do not have the option of Sky or cable, so more
channels available on digital terrestrial can only be a good thing.
(Even if the TopUpTV line-up is indeed poor, the only channel I would
be interested in really would be E4.)
