Here is some info on freesat uk for you the main website is _www.freesat.co.uk all channels are FTA there is two HD channels BBC HD & ITV HD to access ITV HD you must press the red button when prompted when viewing itv 1 SD when a program is available in HD,

Freesat has it's own EPG and i have a humax freesat receiver myself this can also be used on other satellites and has diseqc controls and can be used with a motorized dish, Apart from the humax the other freesat receiver can not add channels so can only be used on freesat,


Five & fiver & five us will be on freesat very soon (within 3 months) when they get space on astra 2d and will leave their current home on astra 2c this has been confirmed to me by ch5 tech department,
