  Countryfile tonight. Wasn't actually watching it and didn't have my glasses on but still spotted this from across the room so why couldn't someone at BBC Studios Bristol?

4. network-shares-automount SMB 'wakeConstantly?' not working as intended?
  
  I may well take you up on that. Puzzles me why the Win7 PC/server never went to sleep when there was an SMB share from the Humax. I'll run it up tonight to see there was something else going on that I wasn't aware of. FWIW Nirsoft's WakeMeOnLan utility works nicely for doing WoL things, be it...

7. network-shares-automount SMB 'wakeConstantly?' not working as intended?
  
  It would only be kept awake for as long as the HDR was on, which is surely what's wanted. Situation here is I've recently changed the main/serving PC from one running Win7 to one with Win10. Never had to keep the W7 machine awake when the HDR was on but the W10 one will sometimes go to sleep...

8. network-shares-automount SMB 'wakeConstantly?' not working as intended?
  
  Renaming the 'wakeConstantly?' folder under Modsettings/smb to 'wakeConstantly' seems to work as intended. But after a reboot it's back to 'wakeConstantly?' which rather defeats things. Am I missing something?

  I know it wasn't being broadcast at the time but it would have meant it was 'in the system' for want of a better term. Looking at the schedule it actually went out four times yesterday.

  That sounds like it could have been from The Food Chain. It's scheduled to go out twice today on the BBC World Service. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3ct1rgt

16. RF input problem
  
  That sounds like the RF input socket has been broken off the tuner. Wouldn't be the first time it's been reported and I've had to fix it on a Sony high-end VHF tuner. Easy enough to fix if you know your way round a soldering iron but then not everyone is.

18. Problems setting up new HD-Fox T2
  
  Wouldn't be the first time that's happened, particularly with even cheap flyleads. First came across this with my father's first Freeview box when a Maplin lead, used for reasons now forgotten as I usually make my own, made one mux disappear. It only came to light when I was back home 16 miles...

  You're using Win7 IIRC? It can do that from time to time. I've only had a month or so's experience using Win10 in anger on my main PC but I've not had this happen yet.
