I have a Thomson HD box and trying to add the 12441 V frequency channel. It is the bbc i streams. I go to Services->System setup=>Add channels-> I fill in the frequency, polarization, fec and s/r and then I get the message No channels found. Am I doing anything wrong? | ||

Can you try your friends receiver on your dish? That will confirm if you are getting the transponder or not. Dish looks big enough from the footprint, but obviously I have no first hand experience. | ||

To get the red button on screen you have to tune in to BBC channels, right? But BBC is not receivable here. Only BBC news. I pressed the red button, but bbc news had only news index... | |||

Meter=Satlook Micro+G2 NIT | The button could be any colour, I would not know, as I never use my Sky box, perhaps you need to get a cheap FTA receiver to solve the problem. Have you checked all the menus?, it might be avaialble through one of those. | ||

My System: Gibertini OP120 + Inverto Black Premium Twin @ 28.2E | I have been reading that there is a difference between a Freeview receiver and an FtA receiver. And that not all FtA's can do this job while all FV can... | ||

Meter=Satlook Micro+G2 NIT | The terminology is confusing, but a Freeview receiver most definitely will NOT work, it is for our terrestrial telly through an aerial. Obviously from Greece, those transmissions are not receivable. A FTA digital satellite receiver will work for the FTA BBC Streams that you require. | ||

My System: Gibertini OP120 + Inverto Black Premium Twin @ 28.2E | Dear Robbo, thank you for helping me out. I really appreciate it. I made one discovery... By pressing the red button while watching bbc news I get some streams. Then I navigate go to some other streams. I would like to ask are the streams from BBC news different than the ones from BBC regular channels? | ||
