Hi

Ok I will give it a try however every time I have tried moving the dish with the Sat finder and a receive strong signal I still get 'No Signal Found' on screen once I have performed the 'Add New Channels' search. Do I need to power down the box completly and reboot in order for the box to look for different signals?

What I ment in the last email was there is two 'Add New Channels' one which is in the standard setup window, and another which is in the 4 0 1 engineers screen under the title Manual Tuning. They apear to be the same function, but is there a certain one I should be using?

To be honest, I've never used the one in the installers menu, so I can only assume it's a shortcut to the same function for the engineer's convenience :?

The other one should work fine.

I would try it for you, but I'm busy packing to go on holiday tomorrow - the wife would probably kill me if I start messing with sat-stuff at this late hour! :roflmao:

Maybe one of the other members can try it for you.

You shouldn't have to reboot your box, but it won't hurt.
