Interesting. The engineer removed an attenuator we had on the back of the old V+ because we're the first house in the street and the signal was too high that we kept losing channels at random. Maybe the reverse is true for us now, worth a call I suppose.

The V+ upstairs looks as good as ever so I'm betting, bearing in mind the number of people moaning, it's the TiVo upscaling to blame.
