I have issues with 28.2E compared to 19.2E and always have had. 19.2 just works whereas 28.2 is much more finicky. Last week a big storm cloud over the Pyreneans blocked all signal for about 10 minutes - BBC2 just stopped and it is one of the better signals. During thunder storms on 19.2 you have some artifacts but I have never lost the carrier. >> Note that during the BBC HD trial from Crystal Palace I was able to >> record this channel from a DVB-T adapter without packet loss even on >> the EPIA5000 (533 MHz Via Eden processor). That is nice. EPIA M10000 with BBC HD on DVB-S I get sound but no image.
