Arthur when I went from analogue to digital they changed the stb, what they added to yours sounds like an attenuator all that does is reduce signal strength. It will not convert an analogue stb to digital.
If that was the case all we would need to watch freeview on our analogue tv's is one of these magical metal tubes.

Maybe that's why you only lasted the day, engineer you were with said you to gullible to work for Telewest.
