    Yeah .. I only just noticed it was thee the other day ... flicking through the list with the channel + button rather than punching in numbers ...

    I've never seen it on our set up before.

    I read it was originally planned for Sommet to be on SKY from the 13th but they are up early. "Testing"?
    And yes, they cover the FIM MotoX too apparently.

    Unless things have changed you can only get Sommet sports on terrestrial (UHF) box and not satellite ...
    Built for speed, not for comfort

    Yep, Sommet are still on Freeview UHF channel 14, and now they're also on Freeview Satellite channel 14 and Sky channel 69.

    But not yet on Vodafone cable channel 69. After resetting the box, the channel that was there (TLC) has moved to 79, but 69 is missing.

    I have not yet managed to get anyone from either Sommet or Vodafone to tell me whether it will be available and when.

    OK, it's not that big a disaster for me, as I have already shelled out 99 Euro for the Internet service, but the TV picture moves more smoothly, and I really wanted to record the Austin MotoGP this weekend.

    Friends have told me that they could watch this channel through Telstra/Vodaphone. Maybe Sky have seen the light.
    Thanks for dredging this up, I now have Moto GP and the MX locked in on Mysky
