Thanks Freddy :) The keywords "windows supplier" was just what i needed for my search.

DOh your right i should have posted correct sizes Nope its not millimetres its centimetres 61 x 110 cms.. I have looked at the major windows firms everest / safestyle etc and none seem to have any on the websites. Nor do they post prices. I just want the window not the fitting ;I...

You can probably connect it up to your wireless / wired network because the TV is DNLA compliant. (http://www.flatpanelshd.com/news.php?subaction=showfull&id=1273593474) Basically it means you can have media (pics/films/music) stored on a network resource and if your sharing this media say...

Hi Can anyone recommend a replacement for a QAMTEX VQ302LC Virgin media cable combined isolator/splitter. I think i have damaged mine during a cable rearrangement as it no longer functions if the cable is moved slightly.. I know its not the cable as plugging a standard non isolating...

Hi Thanks for all the replys.. In the end i just ran the coax supplied by virgin straight up the wall in a chase and then connected a Isolator/2 way splitter combined and ran the cable along the ceiling void (accessible from the upstairs bedroom) This gives me the advantage that should i...

@ChrisFrost How much is your cable per metre and how much extra do you charge for the crimped on connectors At present i wont know how much cable i may need. As of yet I have not decided if I should run 1 cable up the wall and use a splitter under the floorboards then run 2 seperate...

Hi I have decided to chase vertically and run the cable through the upstairs floor boards.. More mess more hassle.. but overall more flexibilty should i need tv in the upstairs bedrooms it will be a simple case of lifting floorboards again and attaching a splitter

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking of using CT100 but i heard anout "Liberty Interflex" from another thread but cannot find it on the interweb. Does anyone know what the cable is that Virgin installers use ? Would vertical chases be the best option for me?

Hi Can someone please help me.. I am tidying up my house and want to hide some cables. In my front room i have a large fireplace with a soon to be installed "hole in the wall" fireplace. I want to have my cables hidden and originally planned to run the virgin coax around the fireplace...

Hi if i nail one end of the wire to a joist and then twist would that do the trick? Unfortunately i have used existing holes in joists (16mm) i reckon and there is not much room for manouvre (aka twisting). Am going to untwist - but will there be any further damage to the cable caused by...

@RF Lighting; yep your right it makes no sense lol.. It will be a real pain in the *** to remove all the cable and re'reel it (if thats a word). So if it perfectly safe i am inclined to leave it.. I am just concerned that the cable may be damaged internally but I presume that the cables...

Hi I tried re winding a test piece ~6 metres and i found myself constantly re twisting the cable to get it "flat" Is it unsafe twisted ..? I had it laid flat on the floor and as i threaded it though the ceiling void the cable came off in spiral turns now as i look at it, it looks like a...

Hi I have just run some new 3 core T&E for a new 2 way switch in my room. The original switch wiring is 1.0mm the 3 core to join the switches is 1.5mm will the difference in wiring thicknesses cause a problem? Also - unfortunately i did not unreel the cable off the reel properly and now...

@electronicsuk, thanks for the reply. In the corner of the room - to the left of the window frame all the cables for the house run here going upwards and onwards. If was to run the new pipework in this area - i would have to go around this mess notching out previously drilled noggins etc...
