Hmm! I can't think of any equipment, even a PC, where that might be the case but there's bound to be one. I'm involved in amateur radio and there are amateurs who transmit digital TV but I doubt that it is receivable by a standard DVB-T TV tuner although possibly it could be tuned manually.

Here in Aylesbury, I have a choice of muxes, Oxford, Sandy Heath, Hemel Hempstead and maybe a couple of others but receiving HH on a set-top aerial through the Chilterns without line of sight straight down the A41 might be a bit ambitious.

Engineer finds no fault, job not done
