[cma-l] [comtv-l] Culture Media and Sport - Digital Broadcasting

[Dave Rushton]

No surprises - but it could well be a different 98.5% - in small part  
at least.

And - of course - the 98.5% figure is for reception of the PSB muxes,  
not the commercial muxes where the figure in some areas could be a  
lot lower and in others up to almost equal depending on signal  
strength and number of relays required.
