Which technology uses 1.2GHz in Hong Kong? Is this used for video? Frank     Cell Phones, cordless phone, wireless networking, a bunch of stuff is 1.2.  1.2 and 1.5 are close enough that the noise form the 1.2 can adversly effect the 1.5 reception.  Not saying that is what happened, but it might be possible.      Did you re init the unit when you were in China?   Michael
