LG TV Signal Diagnostics, factory reset and manual tune - Post Digital Switch-over

This was just a very amateur set-up filming on my digital camera. As I had done an 'Add Channels' manual tuning on my TV each time there was a switchover at The Wrekin and Sutton Coldfield instead of doing a full reset and auto or manual tune it meant I kept gettting more and more frequencies tuned in on my TV meaning there were more and more channels in the EPG and I had frequencies in the diagnostics page that no longer transmitted a service.

Eventually the EPG programme guide had exhausted its 800-999 channel list and it had to fit channels towards the beginning of the channel list. So it was time for a full factory reset.

I decided to add the following in the following order:
BBCA - The Wrekin (West Midlands)
D3&4 - The Wrekin (West Midlands)
SDN - Sutton Coldfield (West Midlands)
ARQA - Sutton Coldfield (West Midlands)
ARQB - Sutton Coldfield (West Midlands)
BBCA - Wrexham-Rhos (Wales)
D3&4 - Wrexham-Rhos (Wales)
BBCA - Winter Hill (North West)
D3&4 - Winter Hill (North West)
There's still 9 frequencies tuned instead of 5 which is all that is required for one region, but it's better than having all 17 frequencies tuned in across my 4 transmitters.

In all fairness, living in Wrexham, the North West region appears to have more interest locally than the West Midlands region seems to.
But I prefer the West Midlands for some reason.
Wales serves me better but if I made that my 1st region it would've meant the TV would store S4C on preset 4 instead of Channel 4 on 4 which I'd prefer as I don't speak Welsh so I've made that my 2nd region and North West 3rd.
So with being able to receive both The Wrekin and Sutton Coldfield, I didn't want to tune in all multiplexes from The Wrekin and none from Sutton Coldfield or all from Sutton Coldfield and none from The Wrekin, I decided that as The Wrekin transmits BBCA and D3&4 at 20kW and SDN, ARQA and ARQB at 10kW, I would just take BBCA and D3&4 from The Wrekin and SDN, ARQA and ARQB (all 200kW) from Sutton Coldfield.
