wrote http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/infoweb What exactly does Lidl think this box *does* receive? As it's for terrestrial broadcasts and it does NOT receive Freeview it must only have an analogue tuner front end. The 1500 channel capacity is obviously for LW and AM radio stations. -- Alan news2006 {at} amac {dot} f2s {dot} com

That seems to me to be a perfectly sensible request Glenn, and they won't be disappointed unless they expect MHEG. Should Point out that these boxes are DTT receivers and don't follow the standard EPG/Channel lineup. Channels are stored in the order they are found by the receiver. You then have to sort them with the hope of not having the box rescan and loose channel order again... -- Glenn Millar - TV Aerials www.glennmillar.plus.com

Mind you, part of the fault is Silvercrest's for their confusing STB model numbers. I guess that somebody at Lidl put in that description for the SL-35-T by analogy -- because the SL-35 satellite receiver can be correctly described as a Free-to-air receiver that can't receive "freesat" or subscription channels. -- Dave Farrance
