Now I'm sure your knowledge on this is far greater than mine, so don't fire me down.... but.....

Yeah, but that's what I mean, surely NTL can't do that, as there'd be too may channel to broadcast in the range 21-68, what when you include the radio channels too....

But surely the DTT signal(s) is/are broadcast on freqs in that range - I don't know, say one RF frequency for each mux or however it works...

Wouldn't that be sent down just like the 'normal' RF frequencies?
