The BBC World Service will move from digital terrestrial Multiplex D to B next month.
The corporation wants the station to join the vast majority of the rest of its radio services, which are already transmitted on B, and for the World Service to benefit from the multiplex's greater coverage.
"BBC World Service listeners in the UK who access the international radio channel via Freeview will need to retune their set top box to continue listening after Monday 4 August 2008," said a statement.
"The multiplex move means that although BBC World Service keeps the same channel number of 710, the box will need to be retuned to find the channel in its new home."
