Re: Poor reception on BBC HD and more 4
OK. Every morning this week HD was bad. Switched TV on Thursday morning and it was bad then went good, so of course it was good when he arrived. Sod's Law or something. Engineer came and said:
-Your router is too near to V+ box. They work on the same frequency and so the router will interfere with the cable TV
It's been like that for over a year I said. Still, you need to move that router he said
Then he said he would attach me to a different amplifier in the green box just down the street and see if that would make any difference. He went out and said that is what he was going to do but said he wouldn't be coming back to check if it made any difference. I watched from the window and he just drove off without doing anything.
In spite of all this, the TV reception looks a lot better all round and BBC HD is fine. Sometimes I think I'm imagining it. Maybe they corrected some general fault which made things better on Thursday morning before the engineer even arrived. Who knows? It's a mystery!
AND I've not moved the router. I think that was a complete red herring. What do you all think?
He also wanted to change my settings so that channels transmitting 4:3 pictures were in widescreen. I prefer it set so that widescreen pictures are widescreen and standard size are standard size. Please leave it as it is I said. OK he said, looking at me as if I was the strangest person he had ever met.
