[QUOTE="sylvester1, post: 489045, member: 81075"] [b]not only but also[/b] Yes too expensive (and I'm only living in this place for a couple of months) and too impractical (I live in an apartment building). However the good news is that the landlady has now explanined what she meant by 'you can plug your TV into the wall socket but it's a freeview signal'. It turns out they have a satelite dish and decode the free to air channels and pump them to each room. Excellent. Only problem I have now is that the HVR-1100 card I just bought doesn't want to pick up anything in it's scanning. I'll have to move the PC into the common room to test the card on an aerial socket I know works to see if the card is faulty or not. Still, at least once I get things going I should get a good picture :-) [/QUOTE]
