sandra and all,

some stations using a scart connection i get 60 percent, like challenge today 
and quest itv1 itv2 bbc1, channel 5 all give 40 percent, poor rating.
should i matter whether i am suing a scart or HDMI for this box?
if it is not really designed for scart use then i'll have to send it back as 
don't have an HDMI tv
