Why am getting only AJ Channel list Skybox f3??Any other Sattellite?

[Zizzo]

Hi,

Actual am still confused and I don't know what to do, actual at the moment I have downloaded AJ Channel list and everything working perfect, but when I try to scan another satellite am still getting the same channel which I have from AJ Channel list (Astra) so what could be the problem here?Am still confused and I need your help guys because I really need to get Italian channels, missing HOTBIRD really need it and am missing channels like JS SPORTS 1-10 and other Italian channels, so now am getting only AJ Channel list that's all..

Also outside I have motorised dish, before I start using AJ Channel list I was getting all the channel but now I can't get HOTBIRD.

Any advice will appreciate!!

If you are still getting channels from 28.2e when you scan then your dish hasn't moved. Perhaps it needs a squirt of WD40!

The dish is moving outside and is going to different direction so am no too sure what is the problem. any idea or what should I do??

Have you downloaded AJ's bouquets for motorized dish or have done a scan of the other satellite once you have got your dish to lock onto them?

[sattv5]

By default only Astra 28a is selected.

1 Go into the menu on the remote
2 Then to satellite list
3 Press OK on every Satellite that you want
4 Now press exit
5 Scroll down to multi sat search
6 In this menu select search, and your box will search for channels on the satellite you previously picked

Hi guys, I currently have standard dish and using AJ UK channel List 28.2.

Which other satellites 28.2 can I view with normal dish, where can I obtain AJ channel list with outside 28.2 channels?

Can I just clarify something, as this is confusing me. LOL.

If you select $ly (Astra2 28.2e) & scan, then you get the correct channels.

If you select Hotbird (13e), your dish physically moves, but after scanning it still scans the channels on 28.2e???

[P&D]

lol ;) Hadron it's a 4m dish lol ...sorry couldn't help myself ;)

sounds strange...either the dish is not moving....which its sounds like...... it can't be moving if it still scans the same sat....or the box is not setup correct...or sorry Zizzo user error

I have done that as well, and still am getting ASTRA channels and not HOTBIRD, what could be the problem??Very strange and am confused as well.

Yeah that's correct, that is what am getting very strange. Don't know what to do.

[sattv5]

do you have a backup of the old list you was using ?

[Zizzo]

Serious I have got no clue at all, I don't even know what is the problem serious, also when I check outside I can see when the dish is moving. guys please tell me what to do please or someone could tell me his setting.

[Zizzo]

do you have a backup of the old list you was using ?

No I don't have back up, Any idea??or any advice, because I remember I had previous issue with satellite list. or I have to delete all satellite list??

[P&D]

lol another stupid question for me....here goes don't laugh but someone had to ask.....

how many dish's do you have i.e we know you have a motorized one......do you have a normal $ly dish on your wall....????

If yes (this is the stupid part) are you sure the cable attach to the box is the motorized one & not the fixed one.....

This is the only way i can think of...you scan 28.2 move the dish & scan a different sat.....but still get the same channels again

Very strange

[sattv5]

Ok, install this channel list. It will set the power on Astra2 & Hotbird and automatically select USALS.

1 Press Menu on the remote
2 Go to Installation antenna
3 Make sure that your longtitude / latitude are correct and not set to all 000000's

:congrats:lol:congrats:Yes mate, I have sly dish as well, Don't know what to say because am very happy, Actual when I was away for my holiday they have changed around they attach fixed cable to the box instead of motorized cable as you said that's why I was getting the same channels, and I was trying to figure out and no one at home said we have changed around. Thank you a lot mate you saved me a lot.

N.B why when I scan HOTBIRD am getting extra channel from ASTRA is that normal? and when it reach 65% saying is full so it means no more space. and I have scan only two satellite HOTBIRD and ASTRA!!

Thank you a lot mate for trying, the problem was the cable, When I was away my family they messed about, they attached fixed cable for sly than motorized one that's why I was getting the same channels.

Thank you a lot for trying appreciate, So do I need that dbs file??

not quite true , if you delete off the crap after scanning each satellite one by one, then you can scan many more sats.

Very true mate....but the F boxes are limited
if you have a motorized setup why not spend a little bit more & buy a better box....no crashing box...no jitter scrambled picture....& no headache with them lol ;)

I totally agree, which is why i don't own an F box, but have set a few up for people & they are a pain in the arse deleting off
all the rubbish.
An E2 box with auto channel lists is the way to go.

[P&D]

delete all the sats in the menu apart from the ones you want or reset the box & start again
but back it up 1st to usb
