Picked up on this from someone reading the MN over the weekend. If you've got a freeview TV with data (e.g a smart TV linked to the internet) you can get Motors TV on channel 240.

Our Freeview TV's linked to the internet... but it clearly isn't smart enough, as it's only got a black screen and a tantalising glimpse of the Motors TV logo. And after all that time making it watch University Challenge and Only Connect too...

It did take about 10 seconds to load when I was watching it round my folks the other night but still got there eventually.

I wonder if this channel has made its way onto FreeSat too? I don't have Sky's version of FreeSat because the channels are very limited, but knowing my luck its only available on that version.

Don't think it's on FreeSat henners.

They have plans to go HD later this year, October ish I believe.

Thought so never mind. I suppose there are channels each have that the others can't get so it's not the end of the world. The freeview signal is so weak where I live I think last time I looked we had 14 channels.

What does Motors TV come with on Sky Box? I have Motors TV on channel 447, but because I have the 3 sports packages I cant remember where it comes from.

I thought I had it before those?

I don't have SKy but always thought that Motors was part of the standard package?

Seems to be a bit temperamental on Freeview, I think because it's transmitted through data. Sometimes you sit there with a blank screen and nothing on, other times it pops right up and runs fine. Bit annyoing but I'd rather have intermittent Motors than no Motors at all!
