hey guys, just wondering if sometimes a tower can get a bit screwy sometimes? im completely lagged right now...?
 
Donavan are you using a patch antenna,pig tail or just the standard sentech antenna ?
I'm also on Tower 82 Honeydew.
 
seemed to have fixed itself, there was an hour and a bit where it was buggered, seems fine again..... im in woodmead btw, but its tower 82
 
I'm using a patch antenna, precariously mounted in the loft [;)]
