So you bought it after the HD services had started in the full knowledge that it wouldn't receive DVB-T2. That would appear to be your problem, wouldn't it?

It wasn't clear to me, at the time, what HD ready meant. I mean it sounds like it's ready for viewing HD. No mention of no ability to decode DVB-T2 in the advertising or in the instruction manual - until you get to the specs hidden away in small print. So I reject the claim that I had full knowledge and it's my problem. In any case, my old TV was analogue only, so I was used to using an external box and an HDR-2000T covered the T2 reception, so I don't give a toss. Now whether other people have been caught out by the same dodgy description I don't know.

Lingua franca, so not very high.

Yes, "HD Ready" always meant it can display a HiDef image if you stuff one up it, but not that it can receive HiDef directly. At the time of course, T2 was synonymous with HiDef.

I didn't know that at the time and it looks as though I didn't do a search to find the meaning. I was probably in a hurry to find a cheap (plus small and easy to carry from Argos) replacement when the old analogue crt bust.

Maybe you're correct.
