Title: Channel 4 HD testing
Post by Steve on Nov 18th, 2007, 11:41am

Channel 4 has started test transmissions for its high definition service.

Currently alternating between a black screen and a holding page, the channel is on 28e 12188H SR 27500 2/3.

In September, Channel 4 announced that it plans to launch Channel 4 HD on Sky channel 140 in December. It will offer a high definition simulcast of its main service on satellite.
