Does it break up in the first 5 minutes on all channels ie. the modulated output and the braodcast stations TV 1,2,3,4,5 etc?

If so sorry to say it is a fault in the tuner, we have had this a few times.

Hi there - thanks for the quick response - it only breaks up on the link channel in the first five minutes - TV channells are fine

Hi ajames - my Avant 28 CTV which I also have in a link room has developed exactly the same problem as yours - and I tried/reasoned the same way as you.

Indeed, the problem is only with the signal (both sound and picture) on the link channel sent through the RF cable from the main room everything else seems to work fine! However, the initial few seconds of broken image/sound detoriated considerably, lately - I'm afraid yours will do the same ...

Am also afraid it's a hardware failure where some electronics might need to be replaced - the question is how easy the fix will be?

(A bit disappointing by B&O standards that the Avant developed something like this only after a decade since leaving the production hall...)

I would also be interested in opinions of the technically knowledgeable members here, needless to say. (Yes, I checked/swapped the RF cable ...)

 Anyone able to help us out - thank you?

Hi thanks - it is odd but I am glad that its not just mine - thing is that the picture and sound is so good when its working normally - its just that as a link TV I don't think Avants are that good, I guess now that they're so cheap on the second hand market this problem will show itself more. I've resolved the problem in a way by turning it on before I goto bed! And I do listen more to audio sources so it's not a big problem - more an annoyance that it's not working as it should - bit hey I only paid £250 for it.

Am thinking of getting a Beovision 5 now as the primary TV and using the 32 in the bedroom - what I really want to do is get a good old beovision 8002 and beocentre 7700 as my main system all in rosewood with some S150.2! I so wish I had a house instead of a flat and then I could have rooms kitted out with all my favourite B&o stuff.
