the img maybe a modded uk img but it's likely u will have to scan for transponders for ur area. if the seller has used a new img then it should have location scanning or set my location which means u only have to choose ur area (usually press blue button on remote) reboot and carry out a service scan....if it's an older img u will need ur frequency, net id and sym rate for ur area input these manually and scan......

The quickest way of getting a dbox2 up & running in uk... use I.F.A. to flash the appropriate blade quad image you need to know if you have a 1x or 2x box. then set your location in the blade settings menu, reboot and service scan

i've flashed 20-30 dbox2's this way and have a sheet of instructions i give to people when ive flashed their box which tells them how to set location scan organise channels and change ucodes ect ect... haven't had one back yet :-)
