Your tag line says 'Dodgy Digital Sky box' - what do you mean? and is the video drop out on all sources or just one source?

Hi Joe. What I meant was when Sky Digital came out I got one of the first Digiboxes out namely a Grundig. Oh how I tried to get a Pace box at the time. Anyway, it's not dodgy as in temperamental just cheap and nasty.
The dropout seems to happen whilst watching terestrial TV or indeed Sky Digital. I wondered if it might be the digibox but after speaking with Sky I was left with the feeling that they just wanted to send an engineer out, charge me £60 for the pleasure then charge me for a new Digibox, one of which I again have no choice. So, I'm going to mess around with it this weekend and see if I can recreate the dropout etc.
Just a side note, I can also be watching terestrial TV (not through the digibox) and the digibox will for no reason go into standby which also creates a dropout!
KelvinHT - Good. Thats excellent news. Any idea what version it is?
