Five and ITV4 change Mux on Sept 30th
 
All freeview users will need to retune their TV's, DVD/PVR's and STB's on 30th September as the long awaited move of FIVE from Mux A to Mux 2 finally happens. ITV4 moves to Mux A. The BBC national radio stations are likely to move to Mux 1 also.

Thought I'd have seen some disgruntled moans from the footie brigade about this. If ITV show two matches at once, where does the second match go? ITV4! If you're in a Freeview Lite area after switchover you will need a dish or cable to watch ITV4 matches.

This seems crazy to me, as Mux 2 is carrying a +1 service (Ch4) and yet ITV4 has to move. To me a +1 service is a luxury add on and should be moved alongside ITV2+1 on a non PSB Mux. Perhaps a few complaints to Ofcom (who are initiating this change) would be in order.
