found this link 'http://www.ukfree.tv/shutdowndetail.php?tx=SD509930'
that is giving dates for switchover to digital but does anyone know the source of the dates, I've looked on the goverment sites for switchover and can't see the same information. For my area Kendal the following dates are given :- A=Analogue - D=Digital A-BBC2 Off - 01/07/2008 D-BBC2 On - 01/07/2008 D-BBC1 On - 01/07/2008 D-BBC3 On - 01/07/2008 D-CBBC On - 01/07/2008 D-News24 On - 01/07/2008 A-Channel4 Off - 31/08/2008 D-Channel4 On - 31/08/2008 D-E4 On - 31/08/2008 D-More4 On - 31/08/2008 D-ITV1 On - 31/08/2008 D-ITV2 On - 31/08/2008 D-ITV3 On - 31/08/2008 D-ITV4 On - 31/08/2008 A-ITV1 Off - 30/10/2008 D-BBC4 On - 30/10/2008 D-cBeebies On - 30/10/2008 D-five On - 30/10/2008 D-BBCi On - 30/10/2008 A-BBC1 Off - 31/12/2008 One thing that surprises me is that there is no overlap in the switchover for BBC2 and Channel4 |

Even London may not be changed until after the games. |

Even London may not be changed until after the games. The source does in fact state that: "This is a provisional schedule showing the most likely dates and channels. .....(it) will be updated as soon as more information is published". Ofcom are stating that they will review the UK situation in 2010, but that it is possible that the regional roll-out could be completed faster than planned: http://www.dtg.org.uk/news/news.php?...ss=193&id=1357. |

All I can say is that the compaines involved, who are spending millions on analogue switchoff are in fact working to the latest published schedule. The latest changes were made so that switchover was complete in the London area before the Olympics start in 2012. A |

So we will go from having a decent Tv service, to one which is pathetic. why not just leave things as they are? digital T.V is crap. with any luck, the whole thing will go belly up and analogue will have to stay on |

Although BBC 2 Kendal is Ch 64, which AIUI is to be sold off ? |
