Five’s new digital station starts testing

Five’s new digital station Five.2 has been testing on Sky Digital ahead of its full launch. The spin-off channel will relay popular shows such as Milkshake, Home and Away and CSI from the flagship station and will also further promote its schedule.

Tests have been available at 12.304GHz/H under the identity ‘9343’. As previously reported by Wotsat.com, Five is also planning another channel called Five.3 that will compete directly with ITV2 by focussing on female-targeted programming.
