Default New Freeview Channel Numbers

I retuned this evening and thought at first that I had lost BBC News 24.
However, after working my way through all the channels I found it had moved
from Channel 40 to Channel 80. For my personal reference I have made a list
of the channels as they are available wef 18th October, 2005. I have copied
it below as it may prove useful to others receiving transmissions from Black
Hill in Central Scotland.

Where have you been ?! :-) Mind you there's been little discussion of
this on usenet. Basically they've reworked the Logical Channel Numbers
(LCN) to be three figure to allow for more genres.

I think they will effectively all stay the same until the next time you do a
rescan. My GDB3 has been unaffected so far.

I just scanned the individual muxes and that made no difference. Only after I
did a factory reset, (so losing all setup data) and then scanned the individual
muxes did I get the new numbers (which I never use).

E4 comes up with an MHEG reminder to rescan (though it implies every
bix/IDTV needs to rescan which isn't true)

Interesting point.

It has been regularly announced on BBC7 with the reccommendation that
you have a look at page 9991 on BBCi for more information.

I don't know enough about Logical Channel Numbers so I will attempt to
bull**** that digiboxes will continue to pick up the services on all
muxes with the LCN stored in the box until you do a rescan. That was
certainly the case with my Pace Twin but it may depend on the software
within individual boxes.

To the best of my knowledge the LCN is just an identifier carried
within the digital signal for the benefit of the end user. Other codes
within the signal do the real business. This guess might explain why
all behaved as if nothing had changed until I did a rescan.
