    This looks identical in design to a sender I got at Xmas from Tchibo 3-4 years ago. Back then the price was £45 but probably worth the extra for a black finish ;-)

    The first unit was faulty on one channel of sound but the replacement has performed perfectly with very good picture and sound quality ever since. £20 is a total bargain.
  • Looks Like a bargain - Anybody got any idea if my wireless network will interfere with it ?

    Can do, depends how close they are to each other and what channel you use.

    My wireless router is no more than 3' from my sender and I don't get problem with interference. I've also got Bluetooth phones, PDAs and adapaters and two DECT cordless phones and everything works together in harmony.

    There can be a little interference from my wireless laptop in the bedroom when watching the TV signal from the sender but that settles down to neglible/nil once the connection is established. I'm sure I could jiggle things to remove the problem altogether but to be honest it is so slight as to not bother me.

    Got one of these from Lidl a coupe of weeks ago - same price. My daughter can now watch Freeview in her bedroom - fantastic picture - she can even use the remote control to change channels. Isn't technology wonderful?

    What input ports does it have?

    I am looking for something similar to send video signals from my PC (Internet-TV) to a TV in another room. But I am not sure how would I send the signals out of a PC.

    It'll probably take three phono inputs - composite video and stereo L/R.
