Looking to launch a channel on Freeview or Freesat? We're here to help you get started.
How to launch a channel on Freeview
1. You’ll need to secure capacity on a multiplex (mux) which will carry your channel - the mux operator can advise on costs.
2. When capacity has been confirmed, you can apply for your broadcast licence. This takes about 28 days and Ofcom can advise on licence types and costs.
3. Next, you can make your application to us for a logical channel number (LCN).
4. Read our LCN Policy for full details on channel launch timelines and terms and conditions.
