I also did a w_scan full rescan, here's my updated
/usr/share/dvb/dvb-t/uk-RidgeHill file:

Note that as normal for Ridge Hill, you get a choice of two ITV1
channels - Central (Birmingham) and HTV West (Bristol). Central is on
506MHz , West is on 538MHz.

I have been unable to get the Freeview HD channels, despite them being
listed on the engineering sites as going live on Ridge Hill post DSO.
Has anyone else managed to get BBC HD etc. via DVB-T on Linux? I don't
seem to have picked up MUX3 at all (the HD Mux). I'm using w_scan,
scan/dvbscan and me-tv .
