we had touch screen telemetry units at work a few years ago and if I waved my hand across the front of the screens I used to change the settings :D:D:D

I knew we were made for each other, NM! :angel:

One way to try to get around it is relocating the antennas of the 5.8G link, maybe the one at the TV end (since the cable end will be limited in its movement).

Have you tried the same Rx somewhere else in the house?

I don't know how these things are with other 5.8G links nearby... if there is some code setting maybe you could try changing that.

I was going to try a couple of small shelves higher up the wall to get a better line of sight. We don't have a metal roof nor sarking so that's not an issue. There is a old water heater in the roof space (above and between the AV sender/receiver but that's all.

But why doesn't it do it when my wife walks past?

I haven't tried the units between another room in, say, the other direction.

This one doesn't have different code settings available.

I'd like to lock in answer number 2 Ron :D.

Maybe it's the tinfoil cape.

Ahhh! I just checked, it should have been a tinfoil cap - Aluminum Foil Deflector Beanie

Don't know... are you bionic?:)
If she is much shorter than you it could be enough to make the difference.
