    threaded ... threaded ... ... does your set-up enable your tvs to show different channels at the same time? is my understanding of the wirless transmitters correct - that they broadcast the selected channel, not the whole spectrum?

    Project for a charity..

    Project for a charity..

    Does anyone fancy a straightforward project for a charity? It wont pay much, but it's pretty easy, and is for a really good cause. I've been suddenly made unavailable due to other commitments, and am looking for a replacement person to do it. The charity has a website that is currently...
