at 12.07am approx BBC 4 HD (not SD) terrestrial (not satellite) stopped transmitting 'The Fairytale castles of King Ludvig' and started transmitting a card saying 'C Beebies Whoops we have a problem!'. I'm using Emley Moor. Anyone else getting this? Is it just Emley or national? Bill

I was reading that Laura Tobin had to change her dress because of 'strobing'. I though this was only an analogue problem and would not affect digital. Does it affect HD also? Why can't the software be programmed to edit out effects such as this?

From uk.radio.amateur et al. Ofcom is auctioning surplus equipment including vehicles, masts, test and radio communication equipment. It looks like that there's some really useful stuff...

I was just musing the last thread, one would think they might have had a countdown timer on it so if it stopped you would know it was busted. I get this kind of thing on computers. Processing your data, please wait. I often wonder about the defreagmentation systems that seem to take off like...

As per title, I have a legacy client with three alarm systems, two fire and one intruder, and, now that I have set up a VoIP BT Cloud Phone system for him, he wishes to reduce the number of expensive phone lines coming into his premises. I live some way away from the site, but I know that at...

Stand by for naivete and ignorance .. but here's the place I need to ask: Since yesterday I've had a problem with our Humax PVR - an HDR-Fox T2 (mid-2013). Our TV is a Sony KDL 37EX524 (late 2011). The first time this happened was when switching to the PVR (over the HDMI connection): a...

I've started a new thread as the old thread had gone seriously off topic about Historical PAL TV Systems! Last night I saw noise bands on chs 62, 64 and 66 which show my analogue CCTV cameras. These noise bands *always appear at night* and they pulse on and off as several 1 inch wide noise...

Does anybody have any experience of these sets? Are they any good? -- Davey.

There have been a couple of discussions on this NG about microwave links between broadcast transmitter sites and other existing sites being established across the south of England to enable high frequency trading between financial centres. It is claimed that shaving fractions of a second off...

Following on from someone ranting on uk.legal.moderated (who I note hasn't come over here to establish any facts, despite good advice to do so). I thought that Freeview was basically a program listing format adopted by a consortium so TVs etc. could display program guides, schedule recordings...

Without getting my Anritsu spectrum analyser out, does anyone know if the AT800 filters just attenuate a few MHz above CH 59 or CH 60 or do they attenuate all channels from Chs 59/60 all the way up to ch 68? The reason I ask is I have 10 UHF modulators for my CCTV cameras and I am getting what...

I was thinking the other day when I used to make my own Yagis, I reckoned that about 8 elements was really the most gain you could get that was worth having as after that at uhf things got so long as to be stupid and indeed although you could get better directivity, the gain increase was...

I use a laptop most of the time and the battery is starting to run down quicker and quicker. I have a theory (but not enough technical expertise to know if it is valid) that the quicker a battery charges the quicker it runs down. It's based purely on the battery taking several hours to charge...

Recently I have encountered a problem on my LG TV in that when I use the red button "Please wait" appears in the top right hand corner of the screen but nothing appears subsequently. If I try again on another BBC Channel the same thing may happen. Indeed I have tried more channels before I get...

I think not only have standards been lost its as if nobody cares a **** about them. Last night Quest was almost inaudible till the adverts came on, Most of the other channels have huge variations in level and or compression and on some of the 5 channels some odd type of glitching as if the...
