very good :) by the way how did you work out the 12B BBC mux is transmitted at 30-watts from your local transmitter ? are you sure it's not 30kW? my "local" transmitter is 64.27kW across all 4 DAB multiplexes (not sure on exact distribution)

looks like a 4 element dipole to me! it's not any bigger than the aerial I have, these elements will be ~32cm above and below the centre. The concept is the same though, even with a yagi TV aerial - the elements on the end start small (for the shorter wavelength / higher frequencies like 700MHz)...

how would a bigger antenna help ? For a start, I am officially out of DAB coverage (significantly); I cannot boost the transmission, all I can do is pick the signal up with as much gain as possible which is what I have done for the mux I listen to most. Antenna size is to do with wavelength...

Typical DAB multiplexes in the UK (local one varies a bit by region) - might be of interest. Ignore the reception info, i'm on the edge of coverage with a single element dipole antenna.

DAB+ rollout isn’t as difficult as the move to DVB-T2 however since DAB and DAB+ stations can co-exist on the same multiplex. I ran a check recently from my local transmitter and I was surprised how many stations have moved to DAB+ now - 37% of all stations, leaving just mostly the “original”...

Imagine: 4K Resolution @ 22-inch (over 200dpi) OLED DCI-P3 / Wide-Colour Space 120Hz+ with Sync 1ms response time True HDR (1000nits or so) ...only trouble would be the cost!

I'm really interested in this monitor if it drops to <£1,000. Seems perfect to pair up with a laptop or mini desktop. 22" is just fine and was once a standard desktop monitor size, I don't know what all the fuss is about if you run it with the eq. desktop space of 1080p.

the 2012 Mac Mini does have USB3.0. Nevertheless check out Lacie enclosure's, I have their rugged/orange thunderbolt 256GB SSD and since it's just a SATA-III connection inside the SSD can be upgraded easily. Jonny

Hi, I recently got a Samsung M9T 2TB HDD and thought i'd share my experience so far to help others who require 2TB of storage in a laptop. Because this drive is not only 2.5" form factor, but also 9.5mm thin, it fits in an ordinary HDD bay inside a laptop which is very useful. The drive is...

I have to say I thought we were all talking about the 24" 4k monitor from dell !

wrong; it says on the dell website that you can get 60hz via DisplayPort 1.2 if you had followed the thread.

yeah will be interesting, just have to wait and see. £1k is a good introductory price for this tech. I think the extra graphics power required to drive 4K screens isn't quite as much as others are saying. Here is some reasons I can think of: * font-smoothing is no longer required (HiDPI mode...

Yeah you're right "However, when displaying 4K content via an HDMI 1.4 port the refresh rate is limited to 30 Hz, so until an HDMI 2.0 update is released, you're better off using the DisplayPort." I presume they mean a hardware update/refresh to HDMI2.0. But dell can claim the highest DPI...

hmmm, could be a limitation of HDMI (3840x2160 @ 30Hz or 4096x2160 @ 24Hz). I understand DisplayPort gets round the timing limitation by using Packet Delivery of the data and/or sending two data streams - one for each side of the screen.

You're confusing pixel arrangement and type (OLED, TN, IPS, VA etc...) with manufacturing materials and method to drive the pixels (IGZO, LTPS, a-SI etc...). All of which are for TFT based display technologies. AH-IPS is a pixel arrangement that offers accurate colours, wide colour-gamut, good...

I think the delay and high cost of 4K IPS monitors has partially been a lack of direction in the consumer industry. They're priced to target professionals but in reality the technology doesn't cost $999+ to manufacture regardless whether it's LTPS, a-Si or IGZO based - it has existed in a...

i'm looking forward to an array of 22"-24" IPS 4K monitors, like the dell U2414Q but at less than £500 for the consumer. I reckon the second half of 2014 will bring that.

bump, any news from OCUK when we can buy this in the UK?

A Cisco 892-W can PAT/NAT for a 75Mbps Internet Connection, get that for infinity 1-2, it has dual-band wifi built in as well (ap801) - just ask if you need help configuring it.

your default gateway is probably the router. put the default gateway IP into your browser
