My previous satellite setup had a Smart Oxid quad LNB on 28.2E two of the LNB outputs fed a dual tuner DVB-S2 tuner in PC other two LNB outputs headed off to down to lounge via Blake starBox Recently I've added a Smart Oxid single LNB on 19.2E Initially I connected the new LNB's output direct to one of the tuner card inputs, I could scan for and receive all the expected channels from 19.2E

Just received from Humax: Freeview HD Channel 4 planned outage Dear Humax user, Channel 4 have scheduled a change to the transponder that carries C4 HD. The change will occur overnight on 27th March into early hours of

At the risk of annoying JG I was wondering if anyone here has experience of any very small TV sets with built-in terrestrial digital. The ideal machine would also have some means of accepting and playing recorded programmes, possibly from a memory stick. It would need a headphone socket that would mute the speaker. I've had a bit of a look round but haven't seen anything very sparkling. Bill

The above happened a few weeks ago and I think resulted after a couple nights of low temperature, not from strong winds. This was professionally installed about 2 years ago. Hotbird signal is unaffected, which is what leads me to believe that the dish and LNB are still as installed, but I'm getting nothing from 19.2E. The dish is fairly easily accessible above a flat extension roof....

Does anyone know of any free-to-air Philipino TV receivable in the UK? I was talking to a Philipino lass today and she said she'd love to have some telly from home, but can't afford a monthly subscription. Bill

Anyone know if there is a problem with the CP digital TV signal? I have just retuned my Panasonic TV and Humax 9200T. My "local" transmitter is Midhurst, but I have always received CP as well - albeit with the infrequent bit of pixellation. But having just retuned, neither can get CP digital TV (the Panny can still receive the CP analogue signal, even on its reduced power). The signal...

Ye might find this useful, I've practiced it enough this week. I call it the minimal interaction of DSO pain method. Them: "I got a letter though the door, about digital TV. I'm dumb and read the daily mail. Do I need to go digital?" Me: "Do you have more than 5 channels on your TV?"

The electronic programme guide is half an hour ahead of true time. I first noticed this yesterday and saw it again today. I assume this cannot be a problem with my equipment, so is it a local issue or a wider problem?

With the final stage of Rowridge DSO happening tomorrow, I am keen to be able to view the new HD channels on our HD-ready TV. In due course, I will replace our non-HD PVR but it still has plenty of life left in it at the moment. So I am looking for a good, cheapish, HD set-top box in the meantime. Can anyone recommend the best one please? Thanks,

Anyone know why the BBC didn't show the scheduled program "University Challenge: the Story so Far" at 7pm? My TV recorded about 5 minutes of "Coast" before giving up. -- Richard

I had my Group E aerial replaced with a Group B, which is now split to serve two television sets. I got the aerial for the kitchen set removed, which was pointing towards a relay transmitter. Now I have the full range of services in the kitchen. I assume I am much less likely to suffer 4G interference as the Group B aerial is supposed to drop off at channel 53, well below the 4G frequencies....

There's a Freeview re-tune for Mendip on 28th March. I thought the DSO was done and dusted for Mendip? Bob

I'm in Bishop's Stortford CM23 5EJ. I can see the local relay mast from the back of my house. It's less than 1/2 mile away. Since forever I've ignored this and been receiving DTT from Crystal Palace. According to received wisdom I shouldn't be able to get acceptable DTT signals for CH5 et al from Crystal Palace until after DSO but I have been, although on bad days (hardly ever) there might...

Having received much good advice from this group I went to Currys today and bought a Sony NWZ-B173 Walkman and a pair of midrange Philips headphones. The assistant in Currys was extremely helpful and patient, and knew all about the products. I wondered afterwards if I should have whispered to him that his breath smelt very badly. I'll charge the thing from the PC and see how we get on. If...
