Hi all,

Well I have recently upgraded my TV to a LCD TV and also a Set top box.

Now I have been told that washing machines, mowers, Fridges can interfer with the reception. Is this true??

I find taht the washing machine does interfeer as the sounds is crap when it is on???

What can be done to stop this???

No I didn't but the antenna man came out and said it will do with what I have. He said upgrading the antenna or the amplifyer will not neccessary give me better reception. So I took that as not too worry about it.

SO I just have whatever is in there to start with. Approx 8- 10 years old.

But picks up reception good.

I'm hearing rumours that the Govt will be giving every household a set-top box next year so they can switch off the analogue network. Apparently it's cheaper to give everyone a free upgrade than maintain the old network

They are turning off the analogue network in Sweden right now and forcing everyone to buy boxes for digital tv.




So here I am once more...
