Thumbs up Channel 4 is F T A on widebeam Astra 2A

At this moment Channel 4 programmes are F T A

frequency 12.480 SR 2/3 on 2A under the title of TTon4
I have no idea if it is going to remain as such

TTon4 has been testing (but flagged)a long time,At present it is showing Same programmes&commercials as Ch4 London

Anybody know what TTon4 stands for ???????

Hope it stays that way and makes life easier for those far from the target area of the 28 east target area.
Regards

My System: Various digiboxes, broken Nokia 9800S, numerous analogue boxes. My lovely little lappy, HP Omnibook 6100

Yes, but the point is that it's on 2A so the reception footprint is much bigger for all our friends around the Mediterranean, and elsewhere.
