I got this mail from BBC reception today:

"Dear Mr Paines,

Thanks for the email

Sorry to disappoint, but it's just a rumor.

We're only on Astra 2D and that's where we intend to stay there for a good while yet.

Once again thanks for contacting us.

Yours sincerely

This is the second time I've seen one of these false BBC reports on Lyngsat. At least we can all stop banging our heads against the wall now because we can't pick it up.
