I have a Linsar LPVR160 Digital TV recorder connected to Samsung digital TV. Ever since the changeover in August the Linsar does not record very well on ITV1, channel 4, channel 5 (BBC1 & 2 are perfect). The pictures jump and miss out small sections, but I can't understand why! It worked perfectly before the switchover in August. I have logged in all the channels manually (not automatically) as I understand the reception is better from the Waltham transmitter by doing it this way! I notice under frequency C54 that there is a 'minus' sign immediately after the number (ie C54-) and I was told this means that there are works taking place on this transmitter. Is this true and could this be why the recordings are so bad?

To jb38 - You may recall replying to my query on 14 Jan. re bad recordings on my Linsar digital recorder, by saying that it was the Vestal brand chassis that is the cause of the problem. Can you recommend any brand names that do NOT use this Vestal chassis, as the Belmont signal does not seem to work either, so I have decided to replace my recorder!!! Your comments would be greatly appreciated.
