Sales on analogue sets - Today
Thu, 26 Jun 2008 10:36:00 +0100
There was a piece on the sales of 'analogue' TV sets on R4's Today this
morning - seems they are still exceeding those of FreeView ones. The
comment seemed to suggest it was down to ignorance. No one mentioned that
one of those plus a Freeview box is pretty well always far cheaper than a
Freeview set...

OK, so the TV feed goes down because of storms in Austria/Switzerland - it
happens.
The Beeb switches to the 5-live radio feed and a red screen saying "Sorry,
there's a fault" - bravo for a bit of quick thinking someone.
Then some plonker fades out the radio feed to tell me "sorry, there's a
fault and we'r ...

Yet again I despair
Thu, 26 Jun 2008 01:10:58 +0100
Yesterday I went out to a domestic job -- a rare event these days, but I do
need the exercise. As it happened the house had a basic distribution system
installed by me about thirty years ago for some long forgotten previous
occupier. There must have been a problem with using a mains powered device
in the loft ...

EPG on a Toppy
Thu, 26 Jun 2008 00:10:16 +0100
Just recently I've been finding holes in some - but not all - of the progs
listed in the EPG. I could perhaps understand it if it was all just the
one mux - but today only CH5 was affected. All it was showing was 'now and
next' then jumped to next Sunday. Is this a local to me problem or 'them'?

I just re-read an email I sent earlier. It included the words, 'The cherry
picker put two grooves in the grass I'm afraid. Sorry about that. If anyone
grumbles I'll go round with a bag of soil and fill them in.'

Problem finding space on a disk in a dvd recorder
Tue, 24 Jun 2008 21:20:41 GMT
I bought a cheapo wharfedale dvd recorder a few months ago from Argos
when they were on sale and have generally been happy with it. It has a
couple of problems , the first of which is freezing but that only
happens once in a blue moon and is not much of a hassle.
The other is more irritating. When I copy a progra ...
