A great reception

When we moved into our flat last year (is it really 5 months?) we arranged the dining/living room according to how the furniture fitted. This meant we couldn't use the wall jack (with the external antenna feed) for the television. And that was okay. We were used to not brilliant reception. But today, well, today we bought a 7.5m lead so we could try the jack and see if there was an improvement. Improvement is an understatement. For the first time in years (including the time we spent at our last place) we can channel surf and get good reception on every channel without having to adjust the rabbit ears this way or that. It means there is a chance we will be able to tape programs on different channels without having to worry about the best compromise on different channels - because the rabbit ears settings were different for all channels. We are on "cloud 9" - and still getting used to it - everytime I look up at the set I am amazed at the clarity of the image. Now we just have to work out a way of making this all work without metres of lead everywhere. I think I feel some wireless technology coming on.
