Ive got the book to read Neil. Not managed to get round to it yet.
Remember before remotes when you had to get up just to change channel (to one of the other two of the three options)?Quote:

Thorns especially were really sensitive and needed careful setting up.Quote:

We had rediffusion with the ole ABC box on the window sill to change the channels. I remember my Dad moving the TV to another room , to change channels i would have to get off settee through door down hallway into old room , pull back the curtain turn switch on the box.Quote:
