The ariel that has been erected for use in the block of flats I live in needs a power supply unit in order to operate.
Only one has been supplied for 12 flats.
The man who has been given it, has to finance the electricity it uses, and quite naturally feels a little put out about it.
There have been several times since the switchover when I have found that he has switched it off.
He knows that I have bought one of my own, but others on this block don't appear to have done so.
The ariel install company have advised him that each flat should have one, but Hyndburn Homes are not doing anything about it.
It does come in handy
- I know that the man with the official plug in, unplugs it at night, and I only use mine very rarely (don't watch TV much)
Amazing how I no longer have my sleep disturbed by the noise of the TV in the flat under mine
What is surprising, is that none of the other 10 residents appear to be complaining.
