Rob its ok but like any tv it depends on location and we find we get a better recepion if we retune it every time all in all a good buy . I'll take a pic of my water tap if you still want to see it.

i 've just got a usb digital tv thing for mine , crappe on anolog (sp) but frellin great on digital , comes with its own little hairy hole...
the one i got off flea bay
I tried my lap top with digital thingy in West Wales and couldn't get a thing,it's perfect at home so after a bit of earbashing from the missus went to Woolies and bought a cheap LCD and freeview,much better allthough ITV was a bit dodgy.

Yes MR T it has, it needs that to be able to handle the amount of info at the right speed, I think it is just bad reception in West Wales but I think the cheap telly and freeview is a better option as I would rather loose that than my laptop if some kind person should decide to break in.

I beg your pardon........
No seriously that would be great if you have the time......
Otherwise i'll wait till we catch up.
I spoke to a westy s/hand seller and he thinks mine's off a US westy. ie two connectors to the taps....
and to think I thought me sink was leaking......
As for the TV I'm still thinking about that one after seeing Shepsters set-up....
