skybox f3 - help needed with stopped/black channels and duplicates

[out7aw]

hello all

i got a skybox f3 in april, it worked fine up until a few days ago. a few channels went black, it didn't say scrambled or anything on the screen. i thought i'd just do a satellite scan, which i did, but then ended up with about 1034 channels total with TONS of duplicates of a single channel. the black channels did end up coming back though in another place, so the old ones that stopped working i just deleted them.

i am still in the process of deleting the channels that are duplicated, but i was just wondering, next time something goes black, is there a way i can just get that particular channel back? or do i need to do a scan again and end up with duplicates etc then manually delete what don't need?

any help will be appreciated.

thanks guys.

go to the section on here which shows sky delete the channel that goes black and scan only the new frequency not all of them
