Pity it was on Channel 4 Eric.. the bit you don't pay for :cpu: Actually.. I wonder what'd happen if someone produced a TV with the frequencies for Aunty Beeb disabled/removed so that you didn't need to have a licence. Do yo think they'd sell :think:

Hi Tony

That won't work mate :-(

There is a building with a tower right in the line of the signal

I would have to have like the house behind a high gain aerial on a fifty foot pole. :o

Thanks anyway :)
