Last week when it was very windy I heard a number of tones coming through the house and also in the air outside. It turned out to be cables and an aerial wire I use for short wave reception, its not even taught, but put a finger on it and you can feel the vibration. I remember on Wichita...

Short Overview Of #ForkliftCamera source: https://bit.ly/2PPr7wo #forkliftcamerasystem #forkviewcamera #forkviewcamerasystem #wirelessforkliftcamera

I've just watched a Discovery documentary (on Quest HD Freeview 114). It was about the Costa Concordia. It told the story clearly, with good explanatory graphics and talking heads. No gimmicky camera work such as out of focus shots, deliberate over exposure, too much or too little colour etc....

A simple thing. This used to be a simple case of using b for button and running down the page till you heard, watch with audio description. but the recent changes seem to have stopped this. I have tried links, buttons and all sorts of the other things, and if you hit watch it tarts playing it...

I have just fitted a 36-element log-periodic (https://www.amazon.co.uk/AERIAL-LOG-PERODIC-36-ELEMENT-TYPE/dp/B01L62DT7G/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1538838784&sr=8-11&keywords=optima+aerial) in place of a Group A 18-element yagi so that I can get Com7/8. I am about 18 miles from Rowridge, apparently...

Robin wrote: I have a Blake log periodic (DML26WB) on a low pole 9 miles from CP and, while signal strength from Chs55-56 is lower than others, the quality as indicated by TV and PC is still 100%.Â* Suggests to me an issue in the path from the aerial rather than in the aerial itself. I...

Just a quick question for you all, please, before I go into the gory detail. I recorded the Paddington Station programme. All the adverts and trailers have "jitter" (maybe one double stutter per second) but all of the programme sections themselves are perfectly smooth. I'm sure there must be an...

Folks, Some of you may remember that almost 2 years ago I asked about the slowness of my old HUMAX YouView+ box. Well I "bit the bullet" and replaced it with one of the newer DTR2110 models. Its performance is really is a total eye opener. Virtually instant response to menus. The remote even...

I can now confirm that the scart to phono adaptor or its connection to set top boxes is the source of the vision on the sound buzz. Taking out the adaptor and wiring the audio to the headphone socket on the back and its gorn. Brian -- ----- -- This newsgroup posting comes to you directly...

I sat down this morning to watch my recording of Ch. 5's WRC Welsh Rally, and just before the end, it was uncertain who was about to win it. Then the recording stopped, according to the signal sent out by Ch. 5. I happened to have it on a second recorder, and it was the same. It was as though...

I've had a Sky+ HD box passed on to me and I was wondering why people buy them on eBay? If you want the + bit you need to subscribe. If you want the HD bit you need to subscribe. If you want Freesat then you need a Freesat box. If you want free sat from Sky then you need to enjoy scrolling...

No not buzzing as in audio hum like earth loop or open circuit earth, but buzzing as in old fashioned vision buzz as we used to get on some cheap 625 sets back in the day. How can this occur in this digital age? Brian -- ----- -- This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from... The Sofa...

I do wish spell-check would not keep turning Yagi into Yogi. Its a damn conspiracy. Brian -- ----- -- This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from... The Sofa of Brian Gaff... Blind user, so no pictures please

I visited a former colleague today who has bought a cottage where there is line of sight to Rosneath transmitter. She was charged £350 to install a TV aerial. Was she overcharged?

NO I think its more likely that it is rather in bad taste. After all a loved one might have recognised somebody before the authorities contacted them. Brian -- ----- -- This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from... The Sofa of Brian Gaff... Blind user, so no...

I've been personally involved with "proper" (i.e. not just sky/freeview) satellite for well over 20 years now recieving from a wide portion of the clarke belt. I was an avid reader of and contributor to a.s.t.c and a.s.t.e. (fellow satellite tv enthusiasts will know what I am talking about!) I...

Sorry for interrupting this august body with a question so simple but ... Our TV (Sony Bravia) gets its aerial feed via the PVR (Humax Fox T2). Owing to its continuing Green Screen problems, the Humax is frequently powered off (via the switch on the back of the box). The TV picture then...

Just watched Walking Britain's Lost Railways, the one about the Sheffield to Manchester line. Many times during the programme the picture was out of focus. I don't mean as an arty effect; this was accidental. Sometimes focus was regained but often quite long shots were blurred from start to...

We have a Humax PVP4000T that my wife uses to record programmes on and watch others on iPlayer.. On Wednesday from 5am until around 10pm our fibre internet connection was down due to an Open Reach problem. As she could not watch one that she wanted to on iPlayer she went to her recorded...
