    can you give us more info m8.
    image
    do you have a splitter
    check all connections try at first pushing the cables all the way in, the scart cable too.

    are you getting free to air channels ?

    give us as much info as poss, will make it a lot easier for us to diagnose your problem.

        i hope your tuner has not gone m8, as its a tw@t to solder a new one in, then you have the expense of a new tuner, i threw my old dbox out and invested in a DM.


        P.S. i had same problems as your saying, no signal

            Try taking the channs off the workin box..and put them on the box thats strugglling to pick the channels up...you mention your using sportster v1.0..thats a old image so you must have ftp.d the keypack over,,,so transfering bouqsxml and service xml over,shouldnt be a prob....but id go with another image,something a bit more up to date like blade quad etc..p.s..youtube as videos on soldering tuners.

                      Try the new Laky image. Copy over k*ys, roms, and the services & bouquets file from your working dbox. Once you've done this; reboot, go to any channel and tell me what your signal is like (press red, then blue).
