Yes, has been since last December.

Presently available services, BBC HD, ITV1 HD, and C4 HD.

I can see it from my desk here (nothing to do with HD)
And yes it is for.... oh someone's beat me to it.

Thanks both,
Can't get no satisfaction from my Humax T2 - it don't get no HD channels
only the non-HD ones. Do you know the Channel number and the frequency of
the CP HD?
Many thanks
John

The CP HD mux is on UHF Ch 31 (551 MHz). The EPG numbers are 50-52

Where do you live, because coverage is not as extensive as the SD muxes.

Please replace invalid and invalid with gmx and net to reply.

My aerial has a direct line of sight to CP transmitter with nothing in the
way. Have always had a near perfect picture in the past and presently
watching Emerdale (at least the wife is) on Freeview upscaled via a Toppy
box.
When she's finished with the TV I'll try again. Earlier I did try a manual
tune invoking the DVB2 signal on CH31 & CH 25 but it said no channels found.
Maybe the box is 40.
Thanks for your help

Yes, it may well be, but the HD transmissions are directional. Line of sight
to a transmitter, does not necessarily mean you can get reception of all the
services it transmits.

It is also co-channel with Reigate dtt and Sandy Heath analogue, so if
you can see either of those, you may not be able to decode the hd
services. The antenna pattern is fairly directional to protect these
services. Its ERP is also lower than the other 6 (at least it was for
the hd tests a few years ago).

Sorry - someone's got to ask the dumb question: what are you trying to
receive the HD transmissions on? As you've discovered, the Humax is SD
only - and so is the Topfield. You do actually have a DVB-T2 receiver, don't
you?

The Humax HD-FOX T2 says it's HD. I phoned their help line yesterday and the
1st man, Craig, told me to manually tune it on CH 31 and he would send me
full email instructions straight away. I waited till 5.20pm (they close at
5.30 till Monday) and got through to Tom. He told me to manually tune on
CH25 and to turn ON networking. Sounded stupid but I tried it anyway -
nothing. Looks like a money-back job to me but I'll wait till Monday morning
and give their help-line one last chance.
Regards.
