ya that must be the problem
when the house was built the ran a cable from each room to the attic and ive a joiner on it to connect to the dish

tut tut ,each sat box has to have its own feed,either through a diseqc switch or to a lnb on dish

Ive got mine on a splitter and a Disque switch So there

[daithi]

tried the scan in the mothers with no luck
when ya do an automatic transponder scan
do ya select only free and no circ polariz or what im probably doing it wrong is all

[satsmo]

No you leave both unticked unless you want FTA only, which I doubt. TBH if you are only missing a few channels maybe you a missing a particular transponder if you do not have an updated satellites.xml.

You can use Sgt Flip Flops bouquet as Mark said above, but as you are in Ireland it will be less the "home" channels, e.g. RTE, these can easily be added.

Or why not take the bouquet from one of your working boxes and FTP it over to this box?

Easiest thing would be to scan on the missing TP, Tiny Pop is on 11642 V SR 27500 FEC 2/3 on 28.2E. Try a manual scan and see if that pulls in your missing channels. Its FTA so will clear either way.
