Hello

Apparently there was some work that was carried out outside my house where the cabling was messed around with and telewest had to replace the cable with a newer type. Did didn't pay for this as it was the council that caused the problem in the first place. Now at that time I was on analogue and then I went over to Digital. The digital tv did work and now after a long absence from my home no tv. My neighbour says that there was some more carried out by the council and I think this affected my signal but since I wasnt around to know when my digital service stop working and Telewest are reluctant to solve the problem without me paying. So I am asuming that I can get way with it by getting an attenuator so that i can get the signal to 0dBmV. Without knowing what the optimal signal is I cant choose an attenuator.
