Never heard of MATV but a quick search brings up…

As of February 6, 2026, UK regulator Ofcom has revoked the licences for MATV National and MATV Music with immediate effect

Re: Channels not working 707 & 709

Think 709 has moved to 711 called Matv

Not getting 711 either.

707 pic seems like no horizontal sync keeps rolling sidewards.
