I turned on at dinner time and thought i was hallucinating! i'm hearing voices! Where's my tablets ?
Jean Claude from the south of France and his fellow countrymen! Bloody hell Rodney it's only bloody skip! I heard French and others but with the noise it was hard to make them out! but hopefully with another antenna the noise might be lower or it might just be my area? I didn't contact anyone i was just listening but there was enough of our lads calling them back. Really happy you made some contacts

A lot of people have said 30-50 amp and then you're covered if you upgrade. I bought a 30 amp supply after a few people said the 9900 draws some power on full. I remember the old power supplies from back in the day the 3-5 amp ones and looking at the one i have now they look crap! Hope you get one soon buddy.
