If I want to watch local news then that is on ch959
But you imply you are watching your telly programmes via a Freesat box.

If your Freesat box is not connected to the internet (My Humax Freesat box for example isn't as there is no reason for it to be connected to the outside world) then the telly can 'think' what it likes and it will not affect anything because it only has a video connection to your Freesat box, there is no 'intelligent' connection between the two.

Generally you will have two satellite feeds going into the Freesat box and and a single HDMI lead between the Freesat box and the telly.
