Extra channels.

Hi ,
Hope I don't come across as greedy but more curious about dm500c. This is probably one of the most common questions asked and I am sorry to out you all through it again but I can't find the answer.I live in the Dublin area and now have approx 110 channels.
Have a question about adding extra services/channels. I got my self a 500c box and set it up correctly and found channels using brute force etc so no issues there.
My question is dose brute force find 100% of the channels available to you and is there other ways to find more channels. For example I have living TV but not Living TV + 1. Is this just because this station may not be available to me. How could I find the set up codes for Living TV + 1 to try to manually connect? How could I find out and set up extra channels that brute force may not find?
My second question is that if I got a single booster would this make more channels available to me or are single booster just for people with bad connections.
These are just questions that I am curious about but can not find information on...cheers!

Thanks for your help on this.

Precisely where are you , eg Navan on Chorus or Wicklow on VPC ? Their website should list the channels available. Ideally you need a services.xml from someone nearby. Boosting is always a good idea if you are missing some. the SLX one from argos for 15 euro is good. The brute force should contain all the frequencies so if any missing boost....

If on vpc in the city try manual scan on 403000 to get living + 1

approx 125 channels. You will find that the ones missing are prob all on the same transponder. Try a manual scan on the frequency before getting a booster.
