You need to do a full channel scan, (or initial setup) to replace the existing channels.
This should find the channel 99 which is called Babestation 2, but you still might not get the proper EPG guide.
One of my boxes still has no EPG info at all for channel 99 despite several rescans.
It does receive the channel, but if I want to record anything I have to set the timer manually.
My TV and other 2 boxes are ok with ch99

This is excellent advice for anyone missing any sort of freeview channel.

With regards to ch 99 etc, Freeview/Babestation need to sort themselves out.

As it stands, I'm getting Ch.99 which is called 'Babestation 2' starting at 1am and broadcasting 'Live 99'
If I want to see Babestation 2 I apparently need to tune into Ch 94 'smileTV2' which broadcasts 'Babestation 2' from Midnight...

Is it some kind of secret code for people in the know??? Wink
