DM500 Some work, some don't!!

[275800am]

Sorry, i'm sure this has been discussed but i can't find out where! my brother in law gave me a DM500c setup in edinburgh on tw, i live in lancs but also on tw (both virgin now). he flashed for me

i get some channels such as sky 2, but not sky 1. i get a message saying service not found! same with bravo, living.

Any advice?

thanks in advance

found another thread thats similar, seems the signal is low or a problem with virgin. I'll try a booster and see if that cures the problem.

Also scan the box with no splitters on the line to see if that sorts it out ! as you know the DB500 are known to have weak tuners, so will need a little boost as sugested above if a direct scan does not work.
