View Full Version : No Channels After Scanning

I just got my Starview 4 today, I installed firmware 1.12, scanned the channels but none were found. I turned the key on and scanned again and still nothing - not one single channel or radio station.
I was previously using the old General Instruments box which was working okay.
Living in Northern Ireland and receiving an analogue signal.
Any advice on manually scanning or anything else much appreciated - otherwise there is a brand new Starview 4 box for sale.

Yeah, followed it strictly step-by-step except used firmware 1.12 instead of the 1.07 mentioned in the guide.
I'm baffled as the old analogue General Instruments box picks up the channels okay.
Cheers for the help Nige, appreciated.

System info:

C500
1.12
