Overspill reception
Viewers in Northern Ireland and the far west of Wales may be able to receive these channels via signal overspill. Not all Freeview receivers (especially non HD) will be compatible, and if accessed via a Freeview box, these channels will usually appear in the 800-899 channel range, as allocated by your receiver.
