There *is* a signal (I'm using it now) but it's run off a DG834GT located under the guy's desk in the kitchen, so signal strength is pretty poor unless you're close by.

I'm out in the cooridoor at the moment - the signal'll drop when I head back into the bedroom (and that's a floor directly above the kitchen).

Oh, and I've also uploaded video of Mark Knight's stunning set:



Unfortunately, I've only got decent video of the first ten minutes or so - the battery on my camera died (admittedly after two hundred photos and and 2 gig of video - I *heart* my Canon Ixus, but I really must remember to recharge it more than once a month...) I then tried switching to my mobile, but despite being designed to transmit audio, the quality is appalling :(

Anyhoo: the second half of the decent footage will be uploaded later.

It was supposed to be original, but yes it's a bit too Green Beret for comfort, so maybe I need to extend it into a proper Green Beret remix :)

Great evening, enjoyed myself - just a shame I couldn't drink, talk more, and had to leave at 11.30 - I'll be staying down at the Feb RV though :D
