            change the symbol rate to have the 0 at the front ie 06952

                why not just grab the cable.xml file from downloads and select your town...box will scan proper feq automatically.

                  because it doesnt always work . but the brute force scan does.

                      under tuner confiq you select your location or all area scan/bruteforce

                      then do a scan

                      dc

                        i must have something set wrong as i dont have any options for a bruteforce scan, i am able to set location but this keeps finding 73 channels of which 68 are feeds and the others are just the freebie filmflex/on demand/virgin central/virgin id ( have an option for slow full scan this has not picked up anything yet)
