    Default Channels freezing

    Hi am getting a problem with some channels on my dbox, they seem to be jumping now and again, some are worse than others but most of the channels are fine.

    Anyone know what is causing this?

    Cheers.

    those figures tell you have weak signal on the bad one,s

    check all your connections and tighten the middle bit were the f connector fits

    Do you have a splitter on the feed? If so then disconnect it and connect the box straight to the main feed.
    If the box down stairs works ok then try that box on the same feed and vice verse to see if the problem box works ok.
