Hey guy's,

I've had my dbox for a few weeks now and am really enjoying it. I would like to watch the amir khan fight on saturday but i'm unsure which channel it will be broadcast on?

I noticed somthing odd in my EPG on the "security fraud message" channel it lists that the boxing will be on there and says it is already broadcasting but it still just shows the standard vm warning message, It is also listed as being on the "Live Events Channel" but that is just an advertisment to pay for the boxing.

I was hoping it won't be like the vod services where you have to manually create a myservices.xml file and add a ton on idle transponders/channels. If it is like this what happens if someone in my area doesent order it? does that mean I wont be able to view it?

thx in advance to anyone with answers

peace

Look for a channel called PPV (it may come under one of those unnamed channels). I know it works because my uncle watches PPV fights all the time on his DBox.
