    hi,,

    on the later firmware you have a booster built in,,try turning this on,,

    you need to put the box into standbye then back on again for the change to take affect,,

    if still having problems,, reflash back to the earlier au firmware,,

    remember to factory reset after flashing and before scanning,,

    Evening guys , the 8% signal fix is for the Max V only, you will just get the message firmware not fit for your receiver.
