The HD mux, PSB3, is on C22+ (482.2MHz).

Note that the RF modulation (QAM256 DVB-T2 HD) and video encoding (MPEG4)
have changed from SD Freeview (now QAM64/MPEG2). I'm not familiar with
your Freeview system but it is normally reckoned that hardware built for
SD use won't be able to support HD Freeview. You can't upgrade from SD to
HD just with a software upgrade. You'll need hardware specifically
designed for HD Freeview (along, of course, with suitable software support.)
