Actually, funny you should say that, the buggers have charged me £77 for the last 3 months and promised to refund the extra each time and haven't. A quick call to cancellations should get me that HD box

a) scared of heights

We have had this with some of our Radio installs from a few years ago, used to have line of sight, then council plant some trees, 2-3 years later Trees are now in the way

Cue one set of ladders, midnight jaunt in the Van, oops no more branches in the way

Some of the closer distances we just turn the radio signal up
