Letter: Letter: Sky TV for free

Published 21 March 1992

From D. PHILLIPS

The ‘impossible’ (Letters, 29 February) is quite a widespread phenomenon,
and is usually caused by the use of a videosender by a close neighbour.
Because of the range of these devices, which are used to relay TV to different
rooms in houses equipped with satellite TV reception, their signals can
be picked up on televisions some distance away.
