am i correct in thinking i use a sky dish?
is it the same position as sky use for there services?
ive done that just now but the channels arent in order and im wondering if ive scanned the correct satelite. ive scanned astra 2.
is that correct?
Yes, you need to scan 28.2 Astra 2. Since you have bbc1 and a lot of itv, the dish is also on the correct sat. If it has moved slightly, you may need to tweak it back, if the signal is not sufficiently optimised.
Also, you may have an out of date transponder list for some channels. Check lyngsat to see which ones you should have.
sadly i no longer have the manual. the machine is about 8 years old and hasnt been used since all the encryption was changed.
ive found the transponders but the numbers in the menu dont seem to match the numbers at lyngsat.
Unless you can find a manual on the net somewhere, or figure it out from just poking around the menus, you'll be stuck with what you have unless you get a new receiver. Though, I would have thought that you'd be able to figure it out, some receivers are not always that obvious though.
If your receiver has something called 'Network search' then switch it on, otherwise you will have to input each transponder frequency, polarity and symbol rate manually using the Lyngsat data.
