    Default Help: How to setup Sky box F5?

    Hi Everyone

    Can you give me detailed instructions on how to program an Skybox F5?

    I'm a little new to this. I am also located in Caribbean. (North America)

    Thanks

    The Guide is here for the Openbox but also applies to the Skybox as well: http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...-guide-257009/ read the guide and most of the thread

    Hi,


    It still didn't work. I'm located in the Caribbean. North America. I am not picking up the correct satellite. I need to pick up EchoStar 14 or EchoStar 7. I loaded the latest firmware from the direct site.


    I am using a Skybox F5.


    Can anyone help with this? Everywhere seems to talking about programming in the Europe Regions.


    Thanks

    You can add the satellite manually from the Installation, Satellite list Menu. Once added it can be scanned.

    Are there no North American sites discussing Skybox/Openbox as they may have a channel list.

    Thats because you are on a UK/European forum, As DW190 stated you would be better locating a Forum that deals with your section of satellites

    Yes i can, but i do not know the settings to add it manually. Would you happen to know or know of any sources/sites where i would be able to obtain it?

    I have seen any North American forums just as yet.

    Thanks
