Hi everyone

thank you for the info I am suffering from cold "tesla" at the mo, all they
do in the UK is moan, it is becoming like a "nanny" state I dont understand
why everyone is hooked on the TV i rarely watch it. anyhow I will try what
has been suggested a feed info back, by the way my RF ground was the
radiator - this may not be good.
