Help, I have changed to sky+, and used the old digital lnb on a dish pointing to astra 1 linked to my old digibox, but all I am getting is no satellite signal being recieved. Where am I going wrong please? | ||

However, you should get *something* off it! You will need to go through the Add Channel palaver to get any channels on the box. | ||
