BLUEPLATINUM said:So are you implying that when a channel moves to 1N from a frequency that is going to be decommissioned on one of the other birds it will adopt the same frequency? That would mean there couldn't be a period of dual illumination for testing.
Quite possible. For example when 5US / 5* joins Freesat I would expect the 12422H frequency just to be switched from 2A south to 1N spot about 3am one night. Its no big hassle for SES to do that. The same for the ITV sub regions that are currently encrypted on the widebeams.
In the case of C4HD I would think its likely the EB1 frequency would be discontinued on November 1st. Theres no real need for it to continue once the 1N version is up and running and all the epg maps have been changed to the new SES version and channel changes often happen at the end of the month.
