Do you have the correct transponder details for Digi TV inserted into your TP list?

Yes, it is not uncommon for a receiver's transponder list not to be up to date; cross-check that you have Digi TV transponders as in this link _http://www.lyngsat.com/packages/digi.html

Thanx for the replies.

The transponder info in my azbox are correct, just updated latest channel list. I have now found the problem I think , I have a quality only on transponders up to 11434v 24500 after that I get no quality. Is this down the dish size that it doesn't pick up these higher tp frequencies.

No, it won't be due to dish size. The problem will either be a faulty/incorrect LNB, a wrongly setup receiver, or its faulty

The receiver needs to switch on the 22kHz tone, and the LNB needs to switch to the 10.6GHz LO.


Do you have another receiver that you can try, if not another lnb.


Hang, about..

You are not still using the old analogue LNB are you? If so, get it changed!!!! You need a universal LNB.

Yes I am still using the lnb that was on my old sky 60cm dish( the one with the yellow cap on the end). Like I said earlier it is about 12 now and maybe time to replace.

I don't want to turn this thread into a which lnb do i buy but any recomendations appreciated.

Anything other than what you have already.

Inverto, Smart Titanium, Icecrypt.. It doesn't really matter. As long as it fits in the holder, and is universal.

I did think that his LNB would not be right, but I am somewhat confused by the posts, I cannot figure if he is able to view any channels or not.

Hope this info helps.
Hi m8,i see you have a Azbox.If you change your dish for around about a meter in size,your going to do a lot better than what your picking up ATM.On a 80cm dish your not get the 4.2.2 feeds,thats bad if you have a Azbox.Also with a 80cm your get rain fade where signel drops off.

I am able to view channels ok, but on 1west I can'k pick up the higher transpnder frequencies. I think thats why I am unable to view digitv.

Will see what a new lnb brings in.

Thanks for the info on 4.2.2 feeds but our lass has the boots and she wouldn't let me put a meter dish up, it was war just to get 80cm dish up. " Oh my god it's like shameless round here" she said.

I am just getting to grips with this box very slowly and it seems quite buggy so will leave the feeds to another day although I did manage to scan in the super league game the other week from 10e , don't know if that was a 4.2.2 feed.

Don't see mant threads on here about azbox so I may start a few now I see there are some experts.
