    Was DSF (19.2E) temporarily off air (26-11-09)?

    Doubtful, but thanks for mentioning it. I'd never have imagined a DECT phone could cause mayhem to satellite reception until I checked the archives last night. If you were the one with the maths, well done. If you were the victim, you know what to buy your neighbour for Christmas. ;-) Dodgy...

    Was DSF (19.2E) temporarily off air (26-11-09)?

    From between 19:00 and 20:00 GMT (=UTC), I couldn't access DSF on Astra 1. Other 1H stations remained strong. It was back by 00:30, but in the meantime I tried other settings on 19.2E for 1KR (11259V) and 1M (11523H) in case the source was being re-aimed to one of them without backup. If anyone...

    A Newbie forum?

    A couple of weeks ago, I registered here to find out about my steam era Galaxis box. I was nicely treated, but disturbed that I was asking experts with better things to do. Having bought a remote from "ebay.de", I've now found my way around it and no longer see myself as a total novice. It...

    Can anyone please identify my Galaxis box?

    Resolved-ish! Thank you again Topper. It turns out that IQg has nothing to do with Nippon Sat, but JSTV does. If any Japanese can afford the subscription, I'll happily swap my box for an equivalent. It goes against the grain to have a facility I can't use, when someone else might really want...

    While trying to identify my Rx... http://www.satellites.co.uk/satellite/digital-systems/162983-can-anyone-please-identify-my-galaxis-box.html ...I came across an article that explains how to add an optical output to *some* Galaxis receivers. nb. Their example looks *exactly* like mine. Just...

    Can anyone please identify my Galaxis box?

    Thank you for the welcome Topper. That site was the most useful of all I checked, but still left me scratching my head. Someone in a French forum said that the IQg series was purely for Japanese PTV, so if they're right it's unlikely to be that. I've had a look at the other Galaxis threads, but...

    Can anyone please identify my Galaxis box?

    Hi everyone! My apologies if this isn't the right forum, but it's about as close as I could find. I reckon I've spent at least 8 hours trying to work out what my receiver is before posting here, so please be gentle with this sat-newbie. ;-) I found my Galaxis brick dumped and bought a...
