Why am getting only AJ Channel list Skybox f3??Any other Sattellite?

[sattv5]

do you have a backup of the old list you was using ?

Hadron it's a 4m dish ...sorry couldn't help myself

sounds strange...either the dish is not moving....which its sounds like...... it can't be moving if it still scans the same sat....or the box is not setup correct...or sorry Zizzo user error

Serious I have got no clue at all, I don't even know what is the problem serious, also when I check outside I can see when the dish is moving. guys please tell me what to do please or someone could tell me his setting.

No I don't have back up, Any idea??or any advice, because I remember I had previous issue with satellite list. or I have to delete all satellite list??

another stupid question for me....here goes don't laugh but someone had to ask.....

how many dish's do you have i.e we know you have a motorized one......do you have a normal $ly dish on your wall....????

If yes (this is the stupid part) are you sure the cable attach to the box is the motorized one & not the fixed one.....

This is the only way i can think of...you scan 28.2 move the dish & scan a different sat.....but still get the same channels again

Very strange

Ok, install this channel list. It will set the power on Astra2 & Hotbird and automatically select USALS.

1 Press Menu on the remote
2 Go to Installation antenna
3 Make sure that your longtitude / latitude are correct and not set to all 000000's

Yes mate, I have sly dish as well, Don't know what to say because am very happy, Actual when I was away for my holiday they have changed around they attach fixed cable to the box instead of motorized cable as you said that's why I was getting the same channels, and I was trying to figure out and no one at home said we have changed around. Thank you a lot mate you saved me a lot.

N.B why when I scan HOTBIRD am getting extra channel from ASTRA is that normal? and when it reach 65% saying is full so it means no more space. and I have scan only two satellite HOTBIRD and ASTRA!!

Thank you a lot mate for trying, the problem was the cable, When I was away my family they messed about, they attached fixed cable for sly than motorized one that's why I was getting the same channels.

Thank you a lot for trying appreciate, So do I need that dbs file??

plz beware the F3 will only hold 4-5 sats then the memory is full

not quite true , if you delete off the crap after scanning each satellite one by one, then you can scan many more sats.

Very true mate....but the F boxes are limited
if you have a motorized setup why not spend a little bit more & buy a better box....no crashing box...no jitter scrambled picture....& no headache with them

I totally agree, which is why i don't own an F box, but have set a few up for people & they are a pain in the arse deleting off
all the rubbish.
An E2 box with auto channel lists is the way to go.
