Ha, Ha, Col,

Good to see this looks to have put you in excellent spirits.

Re, the Aurora, coupling it to the set with a random piece of wire may be a bodge but that little box of tricks puts out such a strong signal that a 1" piece of wire hanging out of the RF port and 1' hanging out of the telly tends to work as a broadcast system so don't go waiting until you find some coax. If not go an have a dig behind the telly while bron isn't looking I'm sure you can borrow a foot's worth from the living room set!

Keep up the good work - I'm off in the morning but will be following!
