How to get itv 4 on sky before the launch

Sky viewers will still be able to view ITV4 by adding the channel manually. To do so, press services, then 4 (system setup) and 4 (add channels). Enter the frequency 10.758, a polarisation of V, a symbol rate of 22.0 (use the left/right arrow buttons) and an FEC of 5/6, then select 'Find channels'. From the list that appears, select 10072 and press the yellow button, then select to store. The channel will now be accessible via services, then the 'Other Channels' menu.

also forgot to put

Sky is pulling its Men & Motors channel off Sky for tomorrow night (Tuesday) only to enable viewers to watch the launch of ITV4.

The new male-oriented station had faced a delay of almost a week before it could debut on the largest multichannel service in the country: Sky had claimed that it could not allocate the channel its own EPG number until November 7.

As a last-minute measure, ITV4 will replace Men & Motors on EPG 136 for tomorrow night only before formally launching on EPG 120 next Monday.

If you have ITV2, that must mean you have a freeview box at the very least in which case you will also get ITV4 on launch night.

Just checked on my on-screen SKY guide and you are indeed correct sir.
