Just for info Channel 5 has moved transponder today it seems.

I found it here along with the other Channel 5 new channels, you will have to do a manual scan to find it.

Astra 2A
28.2E
10964
H
22000
V-PID 2305
A-PID 2306
P-PID 2305

Note;
If you scan without the PID's you will get a list of Channel 5's this is because Channel 5 is now regional (to target adverts :-ohcrap), at the moment I dont know which 5 is which, if you get me.

If anyone can update this feel free.

Regards TW.
 
You can tell which version is which by looking at the audio labels (on a none Sky box of course)
 
Hi there, we've lost channel 5 too. I remember having a similar problem in the past and searching for the channel manually (automatic search doesn't find it). I can't remember how to do this! Any help? Thanks... We have freesat and use a fortec star receiver.
 
The channels 5 versions are:

apid-----version

2305 London
2346 Midlands / southern England / Wales
2313 northern England
2317 Scotland
2309 Northern Ireland

The ONLY difference is in the adverts shown.
