# Ah, thanks for the tip-off.
   Having recently installed a new (digital) TV set, and let it 
automatically tune the channels, only the ABC is the problem.
   Can get all other channels alright, but can only get, eg ABC news at 7pm, 
by switching Input from DTV to ATV - and poor quality picture.  But at least 
get a picture, sound.
   On the old analog TV set, it was usually SBS which was the problem.
   Seems the ABC needs to boost its transmission power, re digital?  Or, 
something.
