I am looking for some help with a problem I am experiencing with some Technomate 3150 receivers and was wondering if anyone has come across this problem with Technomate or other brand receivers and if so if they have been able to resolve it. When I turn on the receivers I get no signal with quality close to 0%. The one exception to this is the sky news Channel. If it is on sky news when the receiver is turned off then when turned back on sky news comes on immediately. If it is on any other channel when turned off then I must first switch it to sky news to get a signal and then I can watch all other channels. I also have a silver crest receiver which works fine so I dont think the problem is with the dish or cabling. Any help that can be offered would be much appreciated.
