That box must be at least 8 years old and starting to creak.

How old is the box and read the above.

How does one reliably age a box?
It's not our original 4000 which passed away after a long illness a few years back, maybe October 2009. Regular reboots would fix it but eventually, IIRC, it wouldn't power up at all. So we got a replacement Di4000i and now there are some problems but I'm not sure if it's the box or the TV. Also we have a low signal issue which I will report when I am in a position to schedule an appointment.
I was only kidding when I said that you were talking out of your "analogue RF socket extension".
BTW, the acronym was accidental but priceless!

See if you can get a set-top from an outfit that will allow you to return it if proves not to work.

Oxford, Sandy Heath and probably Crystal Palace should be good for us and, with a few decent roof-top aerials, I'm sure we can get a couple of others. I'll have another look at the coverage maps in the spring when more transmitters are switched over and running at full power.
