    Seems that when COM 7 closes at the end of this month, BBC 4 HD and
    Cbeebies HD will move to PSB 3 (aka the 'main' HD mux)

    BBC News HD on DTT will close

    I think the question being asked is where does the bandwidth for BBC Four HD come from?

    Maybe 5select and/or TBN get the boot?

    I don't think the DAB bitrate is changed during programmes?

    AFAIK it only changes at programme junctions and on some radios it causes an audible dropout.
