Not really a computer question, but...
Until recently, when watching BBC 1 news on satelite, after the main bulletin the local news was replaced by a generic "local" bulletin.
Now, you can see the correct local news bulletin. How do they broadcast all the different local bulletins on the same channel, and how does my digibox know which one to show?
