WRT analogue switch-off, the post to the newsgroup has pretty much left me back at square one (i.e. the posts from SpiderPlant and Media Boy). See virginmedia.support.tv "Analogue switch-off schedule" for the full thread.

My own tests did reveal a fun result though ...

I am aware that analogue in Aylesbury is shown as having been switched off a year ago and, having now found my Belling-Lee to F-connector adaptor, I can confirm that the only viewable analogue signal on the cable is a 'GHOST' screen saver (Happy Halloween?) on C28 527MHz! I'm also getting a solid black screen on S03 120MHz (formerly BBC News) but this may be because that frequency is being used for something else now as an auto-tune did not see it as worthy of storing so it's probably a non-TV signal I'm seeing.

Off topic: Next time there's a Soyuz launch, point your UHF aerial skyward and tune to S41 463MHz SECAM. I believe that they have a 10Watt TV transmitter on board although I haven't tried it myself yet.
