Following an earlier thread, in what I now think was the wrong forum..
I have a Pace "sky"digibox- (with the Blue card and yellow house ,) and have aligned a blagged 1.8 meter centre feed dish on Astra 2 - 28 degs ( confirmed via a Porty 2 reciever from Lidl, borrowed from a friend)...
BUT
I keep getting the no signal found message, and am unable to get any signal Quality( on the pace digibox) ( strength at 100% on both recievers) and therefore I presume NO Lock..
However the box from Lidl shows over 50 % signal quality.
I am new to all this and getting very confused
I am in Crete in Greece BTW and so appreciate I am on the edge of reception
also on the porty 2, I get no sky channels , they all show as "premium" - Again,i presume this is due to the firmware on the porty 2 or the fact that there is no decoder in it ?
I have tried alternative default tranponders, to no avail...
I seem to remember somewhere reading that becuase the box has not been used for a few months , it may need "waking up", could this be the source of my trouble,and if so what does it entail.
Thanks for taking the time to read what has become an "Epic Posting " :-)
If any one needs more info to assist me feel free to ask......
