    This is referring to the new BBC radio services which have started testing on 11.798 GHz Horizontal:

    Labels are -

    6466 - BBC 1Xtra - now testing.
    6468 - possibly for the new BBC children/comedy/plays station - no sound as yet.
    6469 - Currently playing Radio Scotland

    All tests are currently available in Ireland through "Other Channels".

    6469 is currently playing fantastic music (well to me anyhow). It's Celtic/world stuff. Sounds great !!

    Keep an eye on 6469 during the daytime, it could be BBC Radio nan Gaidheal.

    6468 is the radio station with the working title of Network Z, which will be launching sometime Sept/Oct. http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/networkz/

    All radio stations, no new TV. And probably still available to us in Other Channels, like all the others.
