it's not the image that dictates the range of satellites receivable bu the satellites.xml file.

go here

http://satellites-xml.eu/

select all the locations you want to receiver and download the file then load it to your receiver and go from there.

cheers guys did cable for years now doing sat am ok in uk so I have downloaded the latest sat xml file from your link psats again cheers. where does this go in dreambox, I think Var/etc from wot I have read. I assume I can use DCC to ftp it to the relevant folder. cheers. Do I just reboot dm500s and go to sat setup and the sats should be there.
