As for certain area in Saxony-Anhalt, Saxony and Thuringia there ahve 
never been VHF channels in use. Tis applies normally only to area from 
the first stage of the German DVB-T project.

Lower Saxony has recently (November 2008) cleared several channels, like 
in my area (Brunswick), where there had been an ARD Mux on Ch 8. Now  it 
  is on Ch 47.

Information for the whole NDR area will normally be found at 
http://www.dvb-t-nord.de.

There is a complete listing including parameters from "in area" and also 
"out of area" (but with reception in the area) transmitters at

http://www.ueberallfernsehen.de/data/senderliste_25_11_2008.pdf

So have a look ;)
