    F5 Channel list issue

    When I add a channel list to the F5 box it causes a large number of channels to come up with a 'No Signal' message. When I do a Blind scan on 28.2 I get 470 channels as a result and all work fine however I cant find the likes of sky sports, BT sports etc. Does anyone know what could be causing the issue and if not how do I find channels manually?

    When I do a blind scan I get about 970 channels, is your dish alligned correctly? Is your sat cable connectors fixed properly and the sat cable it self not frayed?
    If your receiver is unable to tune in to lots of channels then of course when you install a channel list those channels will show no signal.

    ps you will need something extra to clear the sky sport and movie channels but they should have still shown up when you did blind scan even if you can't view them.

      Have you got any other satellite boxes connected to the same LNB?

      Is your LNB freq set to Universal (9750-10600) in the Antenna setup menu?

        Yes I have sky HD connected on the same LNB working fine. I get the same result if the sky hd box is unplugged. The LNB freq is set to universal
