Guys
Just brought a new Humax FOXSAT-HD box to replace Screwfix Satellitte Kit SD Box (with Free Dish)..
I got the SD Box working with good signal strengh and could recieve all freeview channels
But now when i tried to install this new box to replace the sd one when i do the installation setup that the box trys to do ... it says that there is no satellitte dish found ????
So then cant put in Postcode etc to carry on with the install...

Can you not try the settings menu,.and try to do a manual install,..emm,.i have a Humax the same as yours,.and mine set up no probs,.i dont have access to it right now,.but i'm sure there is a choice of ways to search for channels,.make sure STB mode is Freesat,.and HDCP default is enabled,.disable Analogue HD output,.then do a freesat tune,.. i think,..hope this helps.
