Should that be 545833000 instead of 545833330, and 529833000 instead of 529833330?

Possibly - I think if you calculate by hand from channel number and add
or take the offset if it it<channel>+ or - then you do get the extra 33.

If I remember correctly the OfCom documentation states the +/- offset is
0.166.  Certainly that is what I used for my manual calculation.

I was told when asking on uk.tech.broadcast that the offset was 167000, perhaps, if that's rounded up, then 166670 may also be valid and would give the extra 330.

I don't know about ofcom docs but you can get other info if you check the "I am in the trade" box and enter your postcode here -

for the details you have to hover mouse over channel numbers, and of course convert channels to freq. The formula I was told was -

(306 + (N x 8)) x 1000000 then if required +/- 167000


I don't live in London, but using a slightly newer w_scan for my
transmitter gave different output from that, with the 330 ->  000.

Where did you get this w_scan command from, I don't seem to have one.

wirbel.htpc-forum.de/w_scan/index_en.html

To download there is a link at the bottom of the German page which is linked to from that page.

I wonder if the 0 and 16417 can be ascertained from OfCom documents?

 I don't have a clue about that.
