Exclamation Manual tune added to Bush, Goodmans, & Grundig boxes in latest update

From Digital Spy



Alba has issued an update for its Bush, Goodmans and Grundig Freesat receivers, which includes the much-awaited addition of manual tuning.

The function, included in the 1.4.33 update which went live yesterday, allows users to tune in the hundreds of services broadcast free-to-air on satellite but not listed in the Freesat electronic programme guide.

Manual tuning can be accessed by pressing "Menu", "Settings" then "Add non-Freesat services". Once tuned, services are listed from channel number 3000.

My System: Pace Sky HD, DM7000s, CubeRevo 3000HDPVR, Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Televes H45 Digital Spectrum analyser.

The Grundig HD box I installed yesterday, showed no signal when it was first switched on (a bit disconcerting), but then went straight into the software upgrade mode, it was fine once upgraded.

Interesting though, the customer was unable to get a standard box from either Curries or Comet and was forced (due to urgency), to pay for the HD box.

I have the Bush HD with the new software and it locks up. I managed to scan one frequency with success, but the box crashed on the second scan.

All three of these Sites (these two plus the one given by rolfw) also contain a great deal of other useful information about Satellites and are worth a browse in a moment of boredom to give you an idea of what else is out there for free!
