Hi guys

I've just set up intelsat and scanned in all the channels.

Unfortunately tho, all the sport channels that I want to watch, ie RTS2, RTL Croatia, Sport ROM, Eurosport 2 etc are all ok for about 5 seconds then freeze up. If I move up a channel and then goe back it clears......then freezes again.

Any ideas??

I'm using a SL65 with 80cm dish. Signal is strong, and when they are on, the pictures are top class.
Thanks

They probably freeze when the keys change.

Thanks mate.

Any ideas for a work around.

I don't think it's key change as Digi keys don't change that frequently. I recommend that you check through the SL65 section and in particular on the processes for properly patching the particular receiver that you have.
