you can't get English channels if you are not in England, it is how free works,
similarly to how the old system of terrestrial TV worked. re your other
questions,
sorry , , you're stuck with your stations stations.From: G. McFarlane

Hi
I’ve two questions in following up people’s answers. (Thanks for those).
1. Still pursuing the chance to get BBC1 and 2 in non Scottish format. Can
someone enlighten me – I noticed on setup I was asked for a region. If I set it
up for say, the London Region, would it work in Scotland. Is it a UK thing or
are the regions only broadcast on Freeview in their own regions?
2. I’m extremely surprised at the answer to my question on why some radio
stations are not available in the evenings in Scotland. The reply was that
Scottish people don’t get them as they’re supposed to listen to the Gaelic
stations. (Was this a joke?). If this is the reason isn’t this something to be
taken up with the authorities? Most Scottish people don’t speak Gaelic and are
being deprived of what is normal for others in the UK. Obviously if they’re off
because of financial reasons and it’s a UK thing then there’s little room for
complaining.
Thanks again in advance for any responses.

You can't do that on Freeview.

Hi
I just bought and set up the talking tvonics today. It’s really good and
quite impressive.
I have 3 questions.
1. Can I get an;y of the regional BBC stations – I’m in Scotland and it’s
set to BBC1 and 2 Scotland. I sometimes prefer to watch programmes like
Newsnight in their English entirety rather than getting the Scottish section at
11pm. Is there any way of getting for example, BBC2 London? Or is there a way
of changing region easily without retuning?
2. Is the network connection accessible and how do I access BBC Iplayer etc.
3. I notice that Radio 4 extra and some other radio channels are off or
their epg listing shows that nothing happens between 6 and midnight. Is this a
non-downloading of the Programme Guide and if it is, how can I correct it. If
these stations are definitely off, why, and is it a temporary feature?
Thanks.
