OK, after going through the initial setup, entering postcode etc, the Foxsat scanned the 'freesat 28.2E' satellite and found in total 147 channels (TV & Radio) but the only HD channel scanned in was BBC HD

NO ITV hd ....... WHY????????

I even tried a manual scan afterwards, nothing!!!!!!

I thought ITV hd was exclusive to Freesat???? Then why can't I get it??????

It's not a full time channel - You need to press the red button on a normal ITV channel when a program is in HD

Although I'm not sure how you would set it to record off the HD channel instead of the SD version - does it say anything in the instructions about that?
