Looks like the Microsoft EPG providers are back to their old bad ways (of
taking a very, very, long time to add channels), I also still don't have any
guide data for Dave.

Strangely, my Dave is showing as channel 19 on MediaCenter, but shows as
channel 12 on my Sony TV (both via Freeview).

There are about half a dozen Radio stations (over Freeview) which have not
had guide data for ages, some for over a year.

Try raising EPG issues here:

There is a real Microsoft person there picking up and fixing UK EPG issues.
And pretty promptly too.

Actually, the listings have been fixed!

Now, if Microsoft could manage:

814 heat
821 MOJO
824 Clide 1
925 Premier Radio
828 Heart

Also, is there a good reason that the radio channels have 100 added to them?

Well the listings for Dave are not working on my MCE 2005 ?
I also have many other channels not updated on the winter hill transmitter

The hits
Dave
Virgin1
TMF
Ideal World
E4+1
ITV2+1
film4
All BBC Radio... in fact MOST radio stations are not listed

Rather disappointing considering the money Microsoft make ! :(

Are the listings really missing or just not mapped correctly to the channel names? Try
Settings>TV>Guide>Add Listings to Channel
