They appear to go as high as 999 - there isnothing sequential about it. Ntl seem to have just thrown whatever they want where they want, Radio in th midst of a range of TV, no rhyme or reason as to numbers i.e. no grouping of shopping channels and similar tastes. It could have been done so much better. Now we see ITV4 launched on Channel 15, yet ITV2 is Channel 6, and ITV3 is channel 8. It's just sooooo confusing.

they go as high as 950 (sky sports extra)
They tend to be sequential at the start of a 100 group for about 19-20 and then they stop. I assumed it was because once the NTL Eng has taken his shoes and socks off to count he's not going to get past 20

But you can sort them into your own desired sequence which is a hassle i know. Its now actually worth doing as the firmware doesnt appear to randomise them when your not looking them any more

Re: Sky Two
but sorting the channels into favorates doesnt sort out the silly numbering and thus is only usfull if you are a prog +- kind of person rather than a keying in a number

does it matter that you key in 15 rather than 6?? I would have thought the sequence was more important if your a +- kind of person
