I know that I'll get a raking here for being a blonde female unfamiliar with the digital pain-in-the-neck mess the govt got us into. But my partner bought a small LCD freeview-ready Toshiba tv to replace a perfectly good tele in my kitchen. We live in Scotland and will be forced to switch in September, so have to work this out eventually. The tv signal comes in for most of the basic freeview channels and works well for BBC 1+2; ITV and C4 are fine until I: 1) run hot water for dishes, 2) get out my steam iron & start ironing, or 3) start cooking dinner. See a trend here? I cannot imagine that moist, warm air should affect a tv's reception, but it does seem to present a pattern.
I'm personally angry that we are all now forced to either replace perfectly good equipment, or buy additional hardware and services to watch something that we've already paid for. And the govt claim to be 'green' - watch the landfills fill up! (Sorry, rant over..)
Thanks for any advice (bet you say to buy an amplifier, modulator, or new antenna...).
