Just been bought a Beocom 1000 as a gift. Plugged it into a spare phone socket in my house and it keeps making my modem lose broadband connection. Tried it in different sockets and removing other phones, but it keeps on doing it. Any ideas what's wrong??

Nice Mika! I'm always taken with how easily old and newer B&O stuff sits together in the same room. They look great! As for the whiteness issue, I have just been bought a Beocom 1000 as a present, and though it was originally white, it has faded equally in all parts back to what I can only describe as a 'lemon' colour.

I will Chris - the tickets are for my 30th so it's extra special. No idea why the nearest venue is Hull though!?

Good stuff - I've got tickets to see him in Hull in May and can't wait!

Really nice work Derek - that must have been a satisfying job well done :) Laurence - just to point out that Derek is not the only one who has been rebuilding these displays. My BM 8000 had some work done on the LEDs on behalf of the previous owner a couple of years ago. I know of two individuals in Europe who have also been doing this for some time

[quote user="Jandyt"] No, the STB is an optional extra inside the TV. You plug an IR eye into the STB socket and stick the eye onto your Sky box.
