BBC South West

Galanthus — Wed, 12 Apr 2023 19:01:47 GMT

In the last couple of days Channel 967 is unavailable through our Sky Q box. BBC West is classed as our local channel and takes the channel 101 slot but I prefer the coverage and news BBC South West provides. Anyone know why it has disappeared? I have tried a reboot and software update of the box to no avail.

Help!

Thanks! Scrolling through BBC South West had changed from channel 967 to channel 962!

Problem solved 👍

As a BBC southwest viewer, I can't say I've noticed any issues, but it's my regional channel.

I can't check right now, cos the Mrs will slap me for her missing repair shop!

It's certainly broadcasting fine as my regional channel.

UPDATE

just checked, and it says, channel unavailable.

Now, I don't know if that's cos I live in the region, or cos it's some other issue.
