Hi to all and first of all thanks for a great forum. It makes such a difference for novices like me...
I moved to just outside Seville from Barcelona two months ago. I brought down with my my Pace Sky+HD box from there, where I'd had Sky without any problems for ten years, registered at my sister's in the UK. I couldn't find an English installer down here until it was too late and what a headache it's been. First a local guy couldn't get a signal, the signal kept coming and going and then the second guy only could after I changed the default transponder through the installation menu to one I'd found on lnygsat.com: 10.744, H, 22.0 & 5/6 (fluke) with exactly the same setup. Then only on one input but after looking around on the internet I managed to solve that too. (Record on one channel, change channels and it 're-activated' input 2).
The problem now is that I still can't get some channels ("No Satellite Signal being Received" message). What's really baffling me is that my input 1 and 2 signal strengths are 100% and both signal qualities 90%. I wasn't getting that up in Barcelona even, and I never had any reception problems there at all on any channels. The LNB is a twin 'Shop' make, 0.1. Dish is 1.35cms.
Has anyone idea what it might be or anything I could try? is there another default transponder that would work? The crazy thing is when I select the channels I can't get (Sky Sports News, Extra, UK Eurosport 2 and others all on the same transponder: 12148 H) the input 1 signal and quality shows nothing, but the input 2 is still 100%/90%!
All the UK installers are based over two hours away in Málaga, so it would cost a lot to get them up here when I've already paid a lot for the setup - plus I imagine it would only take 15 minutes to sort, or less...
Any help would be really appreciated. Thank you very much in advance to anyone who replies!
