How many BBC interactive channels on freeview?

Have been watching Olympic games on my laptop by connecting
Visionplus USB Ter for a week. As far as I known , there are 5
interactive channels covering the living broadcasts for diffirent
olympic games . But I Couldn't find more interactive channels rather
than 701 702. So , I am wondering if the freeview has the full
interactive service or the usb tuner of mine has the limitation of
recieving full interactive channels ,or a "red bottom"ed remote is
essential for this service.

There are only two extra interactive streams on Freeview - channels 701 and
702.

Searching the BBC website , there are five extra olympic interactive
channel availible , Olympic 1 to Olympic 5. If freeview doesn't have
those 5 channals , which system covers all .

There are 5, but one is just a mosaic with the large box being BBC1/2
and the 4 little boxes down the right hand side showing the 4
interactive choices streams 1 to 4

Digital Satellite has all these, it is "interactive" with a Sky
Digibox and no subscription, or they can be manually tuned into a real
Free To Air digital satellite receive.

Freeview only has steams 1 and 2.

I notice the german "state" tv channels ARD/ZDF are also showing the
same 4 streams by using their digital channels, it would be like BBC
replacing their digital channels CBBC/BBC Three and CBeebies/BBC Four
with the olympics.
