Just seen him posting some more of his bizarre codes in the Cbeebies thread today.
OK hop across to the CBeebies thread, and you'll see an explanation as to how my TV codes concept was sparked off in the first place, way back in early 1981.

Ronnie is victorious, vivacious in victory like a venomous dog. Vile Republicans cease living while the religious retort with rueful rhetoric. These rank thugs resort to violence and swear revenge.

But Ronnie can punch through steel so they lose anyway.

I'm actually wondering why as I read it. This particular discussion seems close to your heart for some reason.

Well, I am a fan of Doctor Who, but it is mainly that most of the posts are utter shite and theyb think that all new viewers of Doctor Who need to see every villain from the old series. It's like saying bring back Ena Sharples in Corrie, because she was famous but new viewers have never seen her. It's probably the most frustrating discussion I've ever had. You just can't get through to these people!

That's right Ron. There was no PC in the guest house where I was staying. Anyhow, I didn't go to Cornwall (some 180 rail miles from where I live) to surf the net. If I wanted to go surfing, I'd have gone surfing in the sea at Newquay, but for your information, although I went to Newquay one day, I didn't go surfing there (I've never done it, it hasn't appealed to me) - I wandered around Towan Beach and town centre, then went swimming and water sliding at an indoor pool.

Tumble Tower is/was Star Attraction? That explains a lot, what an annoying cunt he is/was. The same tosser who tried to convince us we could use masthead amps (up to 100 in series) to recieve weak satellite signals on a BSB squarial.
Yes I *AM* Star Attraction from Digital Spy Forums. I just chose a different name for TV Forum and Metropol: Tumble Tower.

Sorry if you thought I was annoying you with my stuff about BSB Squarials. The thing is, surely if you had a BSB system, even though Sky gave you a free dish and box, you'd have still wanted to have put your BSB system to use, wouldn't you. The Marco Polo satellite was still going after BSB died, albeit from a new orbital location, so the most obvious thing one would have fancied doing would have been to turn one's BSB minidish or Squarial around to face the satellite's new position. Alternatively, you might have been able to use it to use your BSB minidish / Squarial for some other satellite, I've seen somewhere else many along the south coast were reorientated to face a French satellite for reception of French channels.

When I subsequently launched my DXing thread, that was NOT intended to annoy the DS community by continuing the multiple masthead amps debate. I just wanted to start a sensible civil discussion about DXing - that's after all, something that TV enthusiasts do, is it not: seeking distant transmitters your'e not intended to receive. I asked if the signal from distant transmitters is possible by using multiple amps in series, or alternatively using multiple aerials (stacking). And then, we all know what happened ... :oops: What was wrong with starting a thread to discuss what some keen TV enthusiasts do? If you have a multi mode TV, like my Mitsubishi one (with PAL and SECAM colour systems), and a high gain set-up (stacked aerials), you may be able to pick up French terrestrial TV. I bet someone along the south coast with an adequate aerial system and suitably equipped TV (with SECAM as well as PAL) must have done that. Now what was there to cause offence with that thread?

Can't people take some things with a pinch of salt?

Possibly.

But you'll have to specify whether that's PS1, SP1, 1PS or 1SP before we can actually engage in moving forward on this one.
