[QUOTE="joddle, post: 1066092, member: 247983"] It seems identical boxes need not be so. I have three Manhatten HD boxes - all the same and connected to the same dish and LNB. A few days ago I re-tuned the non freesat channels to get a few newer stations and was surprised to find that two of the boxes gave me 132 channels but one only 54. Thinking I must have a dodgy feed lead or possible bad sector on my quad Invacom LNB, I swapped the machine for one of the others but it still performed the same on another feed. Just to double check I then moved one of the other boxes to the position of the poor performing machine and it worked fine giving all 132 non-freesat channels and thus showing the cables and the LNB on all feeds is fine. But why the big difference on two identical boxes - so they go soft for some reason? [/QUOTE]
