Default How to select satellite.

Hi Guys,

I have connected my apollo phoenix MC to my sky minidish.

I would like to know if I can just view the freeview channels available.

I have an option to choose which satellite I want to scan from, but I don't know how to do that.

I have tried selecting astra something and I get the signal bars with good signal, but when I go back to the channels I get no signal.

What do I need to do.

I know nothing about the sat scene so please be easy with me.

Thanks

Have you selected Astra 2/Eurobird 1(28e) ? This is where your sky dish should be pointing, if you selected either Astra 1 (19e) or Astra 3 (23.5e) the tp lists wont match where the dish is pointing properly.
