    how i got setanta back on my eurovox max v

    now then everyone,i lost my setanta chanels when i used the firmware fix wen we went down but gained sky sports news,sky1 ect,so i got the latest auto sort fix and the latest 8% singal boost ,put them on my desk top and conected my eurovox max v to my pc with the cable,i then flashed it with the 8%fix and then again with the auto sort,i then done a new fast channel scan and all the setanta sports are back were they should be,but ive lost sky sports news again,im sure if i re scan in deep mode when i have the time tomorow i will get sky news ect back,but for now im happy with all the satantas up and running again,i would have deep scanned 2night but it takes a while and i want to watch the boxing on box office channel,i hope this heps some of you with the setanta problem out, the big fella

          davie have you tried a booster. the slx out of argos normally works well ?7 or the konig yellow brick from fleabay.

              an attenuator weakens the signal a booster boosts it obviously. too strong a signal can cause as much bother as a weak one. i have a couple of spare 12db could have gave you one at the match today if you attended?

              if you buy the booster from argos and it doesnt work you can take it back. you can buy an attenuator from maplins, b&q the latter are cheaper.

                          Davie, you managed to sort this 8% problem yet? was it the attenuator or booster you needed?
