Sorry for jumping in, but this reminded me of a tale about one of my colleagues in Newcastle, He had built up a rapport with an old lady and her family over a couple of years. Any products they purchased were delivered outside normal hours and often on his way home, on each occasion whilst installing the equipment the old lady would provide him with a mug of coffee and a bowl of nuts (peanuts,...

Pace DTVA box has been working perfectly for over a year. Suddenly there is no signal at all. The menus still work fine but no channels are found. I tried re-scanning, I tried resetting to factory settings, and I tried unplugging the unit from the mains and reconnecting it. No change. The aerial and cable seem OK because if I remove them from the SCART unit and plug them back into the analogue...

Robbie Williams at Knebworth Date: 2nd August 2003 Source: Channel 4 UK (DTT Freeview) Duration: 118 mins Size: 4x 800MB Format: PAL 16:9 720x576 delaced. Bitrate: Max: 5000 Average 3200 (approx) Audio: 48/256 Highly recommended. A superb performance both from Robbie and the 120k+ audience.

There is no such thing as a free lunch. An aerial "booster" amplifies the noise just as much as the signal. If your real problem is poor s/n rather than lack of signal then you won't be any better off. John Rumm was right on the money in his reply. A normal booster might do the trick. Go to http://www.dtg.org.uk/retailer/coverage.html and check your coverage. If you are in a reasonable...

The new Philips Freeview box is on sale at Tesco for £99.99

Both are exellent boxes that support S-Video via scart, the Sony has the edge when it comes to channel changing speed but generally they are about the same speed, I think they might even be using the same chipset - so it'll come down to whether you like the look of the thing really! The Sony can be sat on it's side, it comes with rubber sticky feet and there are recesses on the box so you can do...

I've recently swapped my Sony Digibox for a Pace Sky+ box and think I've noticed a marked increase in the visibility of "jaggies" since the swap. I'm using a Dr Sim RGB2VGA box which takes the SCART RGB output from the SKY+ box and sends out to the VGA input of the Pansonic PW4 plasma. Is there anything I can do to improve matters apart from buying a video processor? -- David Longley

Whilst thinking about changing my ancient and slow terrestrial digibox, changing over to sky is a possibility. Would like sky+ but the £249 asking price and then asking £10 per month extra rental is taking the ****. One or the other okay but both ... Since using RGB out from the digibox to TV needs to go through my DVD player which reduces the Contrast on the digibox picture badly. Increasing...

Out of interest, why did channel four not leave E4 on freeview - I was under the impression that this was a free channel financed by advertising. "Stephen Neal" wrote in message ... Richard Dixon wrote: Dear All Just wondered if anyone on here knew who decides what channels go on
