It's notable that the two HD channels - currently unscrambled - are without DOGs.

Oh, has the Sky Sports Xtra "X" designer finally been pensioned off?

Thankfully in this case, yes. Sky Sports Mix still uses it though.

Erratic broadcasts on those two HD satellite streams - programmes/stream occasionally blanked out and several minutes out of sync with SD today. Definitely testing.

[MOD Edit: Typo - don't want to raise blood pressures!]

I so misread "eratic".

Well the channels data has been loaded into the Freesat data stream, so looks like Sky Mix HD will be FTA when it launches on Wednesday.

Pick now having problems with aspect ratio - on Freeview and Freesat. Widescreen compressed to 4:3 with the DOG in the left pillar.

Oddly, the HD streams are showing the correct widescreen ratio.
