ITV Sports channel

[tat]

Does anyone know if this channel is coming to Sky and if there are any test signals being transmitted by Sky for this channel and if so what frequency is this being tested on ?

Dear Tat,

Negotiations recently broke down again between the relevant parties: all to do with cost of carriage.

ITV Sports needs a bigger audience: so, yes, you will see ITV Sports on Sky if ITV Digital cannot wriggle their way out of existing football broadcast contracts and other committments ;-)

Have Fun,

Mark.

I can't remember the frequency for the test signal, I think it was the same as the ITV2 frequency. Not much good though. I've looked at it a few times and all I get is a blue screen telling me about the paramount comedy channel and the epg banner says whats on itv sport at that time.
Who knows maybe soon they will test some programmes, hopefully ;-)
