Afraid not true Siege ! LOL.

It is designed for Freesat and I think most HD sat boxes except the Sky ones have work arounds [but please any one buying a box do lots of Googles and check first, CT HD boxes now tune it in they don't need the special treatment, Technomate HD I recall is OK, not sure about those Maplin sold HD boxes....]. That now brings us onto Sky. The new Sky HD EPG being rolled out allows you to manual tune it in, but since it hasn't been rolled out across the whole user base of Sky HD boxes then it can't be said that it will work on Sky, unless you check it via a web search.

Come December it starts to get rolled out on HD Freeview and the push red button dross will stop and it may even become simulcast like C4HD on sat, which is what ITV should have done in the first place rather than trying to make it a niche product.

No incorrect Josh,...try this,....if you are using a Sky HD receiver as I said,..this frequency below and the 'Add Channels' option on your Sky HD box will get you ITV HD,....


Frequency (GHz): 11.427
Polarisation: H
Symbol Rate (Mbaud): 27.5
FEC: 2/3

Yes but it doesn't since the EPG is being rolled out piecemeal across Sky's boxes. I was talking to a guy who'd had his box changed by Sky engineers and why he waited months to get it, for his box to be upgraded, the one the sat engineers replaced it with, Thompson, hadn't been upgraded since the EPG hadn't been rolled out to that model. Hence I picked you up on that since ITV HD isn't supported by all Sky HD boxes yet, they are still rolling it out... it's the work I do makes me picky for mistakes and errors ...
