    No thats a different dish. The other two *HAVE* got WiFi gear on them.

    No wonder my noise figure on channel 7 has gone up !
    Doubt it. 2 hrs on only about a week ago....... ?

    But if you forget which house you where at, I bet you'll remember when you are passing by!

    Oddly the list of channels on Digibox scan and my PC Sat card scan don't match.
    I don't have the BBC Test1 & Test 2 on PC.

    I do have (with picture / sound) on PC:
    BBC Tes 3
    ETV1
    ETV2
    T DEV-2
    T DEV-3
    T DEV-4
    T STRM-2

    Nothing on BBC ONE CI, except "now & next" = "This is BBC Interactive"

    Though almost all the BBCs have Teletext Stream entries (PIDs) only BBC Parliament actually has any pages. Sad. The PC card and most if not all non-Digiboxes don't do the BBCi stuff.

    Ah they mostly DO have 888 for subtitles. I'd need to write some SW to do them onscreen TV as the teletext is in the usually more usefull separte window on PC. Actual Teletext reinsertion would I suspect require extra HW.
