    New TV Aerial

    Assuming you have a Freely TV with connections to both a router and an aerial. On unplugging the co-ax, what services do you actually lose?

    New TV Aerial

    How old is yours, is the software update to date? Is the cable dodgy where it goes into the port at either end? Maybe the TV needs looking at. Ours is quite new and works fine hardwired to the router via 24 way switch.

    New TV Aerial

    No, just wondering if I unplugged the unreliable aerial feed, whether that would stop the "poor signal" alerts. After all, you're supposed to be able to run a Freely TV solely via Cat 6. The co-ax cables and splitter are in an IP66 box. Happy to try a BTB connector, but I have somewhere an F...

    New TV Aerial

    Thank you everyone. A lot for me to think about. Regarding the Hisense Freely TV...assuming the aerial is duff, if I unplug the co-ax to it, would that improve things? When I say duff, I have once had a notice saying loss of signal and it went away pretty much straight away. The picture has...

    New TV Aerial

    As some know if they have followed my threads, I bought a 58" Hisense Freely TV for the lounge and moved the 50" LG Freeview Play TV into the den. Before I had the LG, I had two old Samsung Freeview TVs from 2013 and 2014. The aerial is chimney mounted and feeds both TVs. It is split at ground...

    Revolting Iranians

    My take on it... Trump said basically carry on fighting, help is on its way. It clearly isn't (or at least wasn't when he said it was), so what TF is he playing at?

    They Want Any Excuse For Censorship

    No worries. I wouldn't feel at ease living near violent people. I lived with my sister briefly and her next door neighbour started waging a war of terror against her. It started with a fight with me and ended up at Crown Court after a long drawn out series of attacks on her and her young...

    He's very quick to call for them to carry on fighting, from the safety of the ol' US of A. Tell you what, Don... Stick a tin hat on and go over and have a go at protesting yourself. See how that goes.

    Right, OK. Apologies. Difference in language. I misunderstood what you were saying.

    OK. Let's dial this back. What do you mean by "I can handle violent criminals" ?

    Mandatory ID cards (Brit Card) to be announced tomorrow

    I have just ordered a Citizen Card. Because I don't want to faff about with my passport. And my driving licence, although valid for voting, is sometimes rejected as it has expired. I'm getting tired arguing about it.

    2026 New Year's Resolutions

    I have resolved to do 5 things this year, three of them diet-based. 1. Continue to lose more weight. I broke my ankle in three places in November last year and was bed-ridden from then until mid January. Which afforded me the opportunity to lose a few stone. Well, 4 to be precise. 2. Eat more...

    They Want Any Excuse For Censorship

    What worries me is that, generally, if you go out in public, everything you can see, in theory, you can film, including people. There is no expectation of privacy in public. Anyone and everyone can film; councils do it, police do it, shops do it, householders do it, pubs and clubs do it, we do...
