No, I took no further action since earthing the ScientificAtlanta. I am too scared that they will replace it by another model, which might have unknown consequences (e.g. missing digital out, different IR requiring me to reprogram my Harmony Universal Remote, etc.), especially since I am working during the day and could not explain anything to the engineer myself. Also, there is the pain in convincing the VirginMedia Telephone Support to send an actual Engineer - after all, that is the task of the Telephone Support Team, to reduce the number of call-outs.

So a lot of pain, but no possible gain (since there is no more hum after earthing).
