This one works well at my Mothers for her bedroom but i suppose it depends on where you live and whats in the way of getting a signal

Funny enough I just updated her channels this morning through it so she could get the new Challenge channel
Its a Samsung telly that she has though
I always wondered why mine didn't always have good signal...judging by that picture I havent even got mine set up right.0 -
Hi,
Does anyone know if it's possible to change the settings on the Freeview programme info box that appears at the bottom of the screen? The font is tiny and I can't read it from my bed!! Thanks x0 -
Well I collected mine from instore today. I am gutted to find it does not have the on/off switch nor does it have the USB port

I am guessing that out of the 3 models I have the bottom of the barrel one? I am thinking about taking it back for a refund......think I should?

I don't think an on/off switch is that important...I paid £179 (special) for my samsung in my bedroom...It doesn't have an on/off but does have some fancies.
Overall I think it's a decent deal at £84.00, athough if you're really set on the on/off you could take it into store and see if they have any and exchange it.

Incidentally does anyone know of a Sky remote code for the Technika? I set Mum's up today, picked up all freeviews first off and the picture is good. Her's does have an on/off but never thought to look for USB.*~Life is short; break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly,

Try either 0335 or 0065, one of those should work.I don't think an on/off switch is that important...I paid £179 (special) for my samsung in my bedroom...It doesn't have an on/off but does have some fancies.

I doubt you will find another 22inch one for that price, and you definatley wont find one HD ready, freeview and DVD. Its a manual switch, if your that bothered turn it off at the socket.0 -
Not as easy as you think though, I have to run an extension cable from behind my huge wardrobes (the big kind that take up the entire length of my room which I built) so getting to the back of that everytime would be rather tedious.poor-but-happy wrote: »I doubt you will find another 22inch one for that price, and you definatley wont find one HD ready, freeview and DVD.

Unplug it from the extension then, simples.0
