    same software, but different symbol rate, eg he may be telewest and you may be ntl, just scan on correct symbol rate

        Your mate could be in an area that has switched to new nagra3 encryption. Read up on forum about areas affected.

            I seem to remember reading that Nagra 3 had hit parts of Lincolnshire,if you have deleted all channels and done a deep scan,not much more you can do ....

                The Eurovoxes are very sensitive to signal strengths,if they are not high enough then they won't work,whereas Virgin cable boxes will...the only thing I can suggest is that he connect the box directly to the incoming cable,with nothing in between,then do a deep scan,making sure all channels are deleted ....it should then, by rights, work ok,since you say you had it working ok ...but it might just be that he needs to try a signal strength booster available from Argos ...
