I have a working Sly box with mini dish. I have purchase a Humax 9100 and 60cm fixed dish with Blue Line Universal LNB with 2 outputs.
I provisionally set up my Humax on the mini dish. I then assembled the 60cm one and placed it in my workmate, set that up with the Humax ok.
Now comes the rub, I've fixed it on the bungalow wall, pointed it roughly the same, tweaked for max signal, 60% strength 100% quality. When I try to receive a free channel, say BBC1, it says
"The channnel is scrambled or not available", however it shows the signal bar as ok, also it seems to be able to set the time using BBC1.
I've tried realigning the dish, East and West still no joy.
Similarly the Sky box fails to lock onto the signal.
Now I expect (and fervently hope) that I have done something stupid. Any ideas please?
