      hi m8, tried to follow this which fergal suggested
      "Press blue button and do the setmylocation feature then go to then scan menu change provider to the same as the symbol rate turn fast scan on then press red to save then blue to scan."

      wasnt to sure about my area, glasgow 1 or 2 so tried both, but i wasnt 2 sure what he meant by "change provider to the same as the symbol rate"

      i tried turning the scan off after 25 mins but it just froze, so i unplugged and started again and it says " need to scan" then tells me dbox>sevices but im kinda worried i might completly ~~~~ it up if i havnt already , dont mind trying to flash if i need to but i'd rather not if it can be helped, its ok to mess around with your own, but when its someone elses im a bit dubious

      ok i've found how to change freq, symbol rate etc, will i need to change any these settings, im in north lanarkshire and settings are

      netid 41048
      freq 666750
      symbol rate 6952

      when starting service scan i get:

      cable: cable uk
      transponders: then nothing
      frequency:as above

      provider: nothing
      channel; nothing

      sorry for the hassle guys

        set ur location to either glasgow again then reboot, try again with fast scan on, u should see about 30+ transponders...if not press home to abort then try other glasgow location and reboot, then try again

        glasgow 2 are the same settings as north lanarkshire
