    Ive seen a few posts with that problem. I would make sure there is only 1 cable coming from your wall into the box ie. no splitter. Then try scanning again. Also maybe a booster, would sort it.

      They are swapping channels around again, do a brute force scan, should pick them back up again. I have seen peeps doing 2 full scans in last 3 days because of this.

      dont forget to re add them to your bouquetts as the will show up as " removed service "

      I am not sure if this is a new tactic to have people thinking they have lost the channels and get sick.

      or a genuine re shape up of transponders.

      Best thing to do is just have 1 big list of all channels until they all have settled down.

              had this problem as well m8

              It also showed as scrambled

              i simply ran a Deep Scan NOTE: NOT A POWER SCAN BUT A DEEP SCAN. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE. This will delete all your channels and start scanning from scratch. Takes about 30 min but im pretty sure itll get you all the channels as long as your using a good splitter or a direct connection.

              GOOD LUCK!

                Before doing a power scan do a update channel scan if they still show as scrambled delete those channels then do a update channel scan again.
