Does anyone know the reason why News 24 has moved from 10773H on 2D to 11954H on the 2A South beam? Using a FTA Humax without a Sky EPG I just ended up with a black channel - no advance warning of the change - but now all working fine after a re-tune. But I am curious: is this something to do with Freesat preparation?

The main theory on the other forums is that they are feeing up space on 10773 H so that they can move "BBC 1 Cambridge" and "BBC1 Channel Islands" off of 10847 V in order to keep that TP exclusively for HD channels. They have been moving a lot of stuff off 2D (i.e. nearly all the radio stations and now News 24) over the last 12 months.
