    Only picking up 28.2East, Help !

    Hello all

    the satellite man came out today to fix my dish due to it overturning, He fixed it and left me to scan in my channels, I manually scanned in the single satellite 28.2E, All channels where successfully installed in and are working without any problems, I now try and scan ANY other channel/satellite in, And pick NOTHING up ? Why would this be ? How can I fix it ?

    Any help highly appericiated !

    Is the dish moving, also have you altered anything in you tuner configuration.
    Instead of scaning everything, why dont you load a new set of channel lists via dreambox edit.

          update your satellites.xml file as thats what tells your receiver which transponders to scan on which satellite.

                go here
                Code:
                http://www.satellites-xml.eu/
                select every satellite you want to receive ( you can only use one file so make sure there all in there )
                also make sure you select .xml and not .ini.

                once you have the file ftp it over to
                ETC/
                on your box over writing the original. once done do a scan on the satellites of your choice.

                        Ok realy not understanding now, im picking up most HD feeds, And not SD feeds, So let me list the key problems :
                        Picking up HD feeds and not SD.
                        Not been able to scan in any other satellite or move to it when i select scan.
                        Fixed to 28.2E because the box isn't driving the motor.
                        motor works as sat man was up there with meter, HELP !

                          Has your sat guy reset the box, if he has you will need to setup your tuner config. Use one of the stickies using usals or non usals.
