BUt that's what is confusing me Ian :)
Will the switchover for everying be on september six, or just for bbc 2 and 
then rest to follow?
If that is the case I guess I won't here in the midlands get full service even 
with the RNIB box until april 20?
I just don't want to waste my money on thge box yet if I am not going to hardly 
get any channels
