  • Channel dropped off Freesat?

    From PeterC@21:1/5 to All on Fri Apr 1 15:45:21 2022
    I deleted W as it was crap and also because it restored the whole number of presses to go down the EPG.
    Now the EPG seems to have lost a channel and it goes on one but I can't
    figure out which one.
    Happened yesterday or possibly late on the day before. Any idea what it was?

    Was "W" (Watch) available on Freesat?

    It is a subscription channel for Sky+.

    I think it might be RT HD,when it was banned it still showed in the
    channel list, but now gone.

    nor me, but one has definitely departed as a rescan here (NN17) now
    gives 154 channels, it was 155 a few days ago.

    Yes and it is still there today.

    It is a subscription channel for Sky+.


    W HD is available on a SkyQ basic package.

    I did consider RT but then realised that I'd deleted it months ago.
    Wish I'd kept W now as it would have restored world order!

    Thanks - it's more difficult to spot a loss than an addition.
    Bit annoying as I watch several series on Pick and sometimes have to use +1
    to avoid a clash.
