Hi
The AD channel is carried on BBC 1 London BBC 2 England ITV 1 London CH4 I
think is also the London region but not sure on that one.
How you turn on AD on the Fresat box i cant tell you as I only a have a SKY
box and a Free to air box. But on the FTA box remote control there is an
audio button which allows you to move between audio tracks, so when i go to
say BBC 1London I just hit the audio button downarrow to the second option
press OK and its set to the AD channel, and the same for all other available
AD TV channels.
With the Sky box its a lot easier, you can set AD via tthe services menu and
its turned on on all available AD channels including channels stored on the
Otherr Channels menu which is just as well for us in the Republic of Ireland
as most of the BBC/ITV AD channels are not on the sky EPG. here. All the
best with the new box.
Tony
