That's  a VERY sore point, Alan....before I married, I lived on a hill, 
overlooking the sea...superb, on every band.

Then after marrying we bought a house in a valley....and the difference! 
It's as if all my front ends have blown.

I've saved your email Alan, full of information as it was, and I'll be 
acting on it in the coming months.

Thanks,
Martin
