For a start you wrote the opening line in capitals - shouting.

Secondly you answered on behalf of a group of whom you do not know the full skill set, this group is not so much the bunch of techies and geeks you would expect to find on a forum, but includes people from all walks of life. We have teachers, opticians, radio DJs, leatherworkers, etc, I would not be suprised if an art restorer was lurking somewhere, they watch TV too (well I imagine they do - History channel?), and that is really the common bond of this thread, NTL DTV and other cable services.

What you probably should have said was don't ask me, but I would seek expert advice IMHO, you may not find that here, but lets see what others have to say.

Others including myself feel we did have something constructive to say (including ultimately getting experts involved). I think it was written in a way that irritated, indicating to the OP that they should stop asking such questions and go elsewhere, but if you look at threads on here all kind of diverse questions are asked. Lifes experience from many of the members contribute to a constructive and useful answer.
