There was a marked improvement with one empty Coco Pops box placed below and an empty (blue) Kleenex box above. I'm fresh out of mirrors at the moment but, suffering a flashback to Take Hart, I decided to place a 1.83m strip of 78cmTurkey foil directly below the plasma screen and Hey Presto!! I'm now receiving still images from the Hubble Telescope accompanied by an instrumental pan pipe interpretation of "Green" by Scritti Politti. I am delighted!! Hooray for Virgin Media (and Roxyfella).

You do not need tv on to see if STB responding.


Dohh
This sounds like a fantastic idea. Is it like the TV/Phone debundling? Does this mean I can now get an stb without having to have a TV?

If so that's great!! I've never really understood the need for a TV other than to check if the numerical display on the front of my stb was changing.
