Below are all of Phillip's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.I am using a Bush HD freesat box and a Luxor HD freeview box with my 'Polaroid' HD ready tv. The freesat box automatically sets to 1080I and the freeview box to 720P. Both are connected to the tv using hdmi cables.
Picture quality on both is very good and if anything, better on the 720P freeview channels.
However when I view HD programmes on freesat (don't have freeview HD here yet)I struggle to see any improvement in picture quality.
Am I alone or just doing something wrong?
Despite this I am very pleased with both boxes, much more fun than the SKY package I had before.
By the way I tuned in ITV HD in Crumlin (northern ireland) with no problem and no change of post code.

Briantist, please help! I have been losing reception on several sky channels, especially those with a 4 in their name ie. channel 4 more 4 ect. So I called in the local sky installers who came in my living room, checked the signal strength with their gizmo and said the signal strength was fine so there should be no problem. I still have the same problem and out of pocket £100 for nothing.

Thank You for previous advice.

Thank you to Mike Dimmick for info on Pick TV.
Got to warn you Mike, I studied Latin for 5 years and I was no good at it either, so I might be back for more help! Cheers as the Romans should have said.
