Re: NTL - Which aera?

Presume you mean Bromley (fomer Cable & Wireless) or Langley ('original' NTL)?

Look at the Set Top Box. If BBC1 is on Channel 1, it's Bromley, if it's 101, it's Langley.

You're in the Thames Valley area, fed from the Reading headend, on the Langley platform.

Hope that helps.

Don't have anything on Ch1 and the box only goes up to 50 or so...

BTW - I'm on the old analog cable!
