    You cant as its a regional issue, i.e. you are in Northern Ireland and so will only receive BBC for that region.

    In the UK mainland you get a choice of all regions and your one is picked up by the Net ID. However in Ulster I presumed the default region was established, if this is not the case why not take the frequency from one of the boxes with BBC Scotland on it and do a manual scan using it?
