I bought the DVD 101 on price, the Woolies £129.95. Both pleased and not so pleased.
#1 Pleased with the overall machine, much better than tapes.
#2 As well as broadcast channels I have Satellite, Freeview , and a Digibox and I found the
best way to tune these in through RF with the 101 is to access the "fine tune" setup and
tune each channel. Plenty of websites give UHF transmitter freq`s, one I found is:

This info makes tunning your local channels easy.
#3 A bad point seems to be that I can`t pause while recording something, to edit bits
out, then resume.
#4 Another bad point is that the machine appears not to be able to record music onto
CDR`s or CDRW`s.BUT this might be me not doing it right.
#5 I`m sure to think of something else......
