What's your picture like on other sats.

Also try switching your patch off.
Using your remote-control press "menu" and go to "System Information" and press "OK".
Press "2004" on remote and this will switch the patch off. Doing it again will switch patch back on.

With patch off check your picture on 28 east, so you can then see the difference.

Sorry I do not understand, repatched for what, you will never get a patch to open channels on 28.2 East you will only be able to view the FTA ones nothing else unles you are using a Dragon with sub card

Hi Rob this works, but when i switch patch back on to view Hotbird problem persists, i guess i,ll have to switch patch on and off as i require,maybe future patch will resolve problem, thank you for your advice, much appreciated.

DM has brought out a new patch with D+ and TPS auto update today so try that and hopefully all your problems will be solved.

I'm assuming that you are watching only the FTA channels from 28.2 or is it one of those that can take a sky card?

FREE TO AIR m8, although i believe i,ve read somewhere that you can use a s-y card in TM stb??, but i don,t know what channels you get.
