        if you only have the free to air software on the box the secret menu is not available, have you loaded the latest firmware

                dont think so.btw,what do you mean by how does it turn off?
                latest f/are is 1.07, has been for months. when things go awol, try menu,1570, hit default(make sure keycode is on), then back to slyspts... ynwa

                  Grayers,

                  I'm out there on June 2nd, back on June 9th ! Will let you know how I got on. I bought one recently and am about to take it over.
                  Having played about with the box at home (I'm not in a cable area) I don't think the auto-scan will help as it's looking at the specific frequency ranges and other settings used in UK and Eire. I need to collar a resident, play with their box, note all the frequencies of the English channels then input them all manually in my box. If the channels are FTA then it should work. If they are scrambled then we are stuffed. The firmware update mentioned on this forum seems only to apply to UK and Eire. Unless someone tells us otherwise, I don't think it will help.
