Sheffielders Retune
« on: March 16, 2010, 07:51:56 PM »

I see that folk in Sheffield have to retune their Freeview sets tomorrow (Wed) to keep up with the changes required to BBC broadcasts to free up channel space for HD
- see www.reghardware.co.uk/2010/03/16/freeview_sheffield_switch/ 
This caused some equipment problems for many in the North West when the retune occurred there last Sept-Dec (where Lancashire leads today Yorkshire will invariably follow tomorrow!).  Good luck with it all!  :)

Thanks Jazz  :)

Didn't have to do anything here and its working fine.Not sure if this involved all Sheffield.We get our signal from the Emily Moor transmitter.

We have Sky on our main set and Freeview on a 15" set in the bedroom.It was only purchased in Novemeber so I guess newer sets are easier to retune.
I remember Kitz had a nightmare when her area switched over.
