SKY is no longer the limit

Just to put this little problem to bed, after our last discussion on it, I
went to Craplin & bought some 75 Ohm resistors to bung in the SCART
plug at
the Rx unit end as per Keith's suggestion and....no joy whatsoever :-(
Still exactly the same.
Checked & rechecked soldering - was fine.
Hmm.....checked resistors - bloody craplin gave me 75K ohm resistors - DOH!
So... Keith sent me some proper ones (10 of the Keith - you anticipating
I'll have problems with other Kat5 units? :-)) and it now works fine.
The picture is noticably darker than not going thru KAT5, though I assume
it's a result of bunging on the resistor, as there was bugger all
difference
between KAT5 DVD and no KAT5 DVD when I got the units initially.
I wouldn't say the picture is degraded, just the brightness is turned down
a
bit maybe.
Cheers for your help keith and (sorry, forgot your name) who had the same
problem with his SKY box.
Mine is a PAnasonic for the record, though not the same one as Keith's.
I'll have a look round the back to see if I can see a model number
somewhere.
Keith - perhaps you need a troubleshooting section on your webiste
recording
these dodgy devices & how to solve the problems?
cheers,
Tony
