HI ALL
Well this was an eye-opener! Hope I have posted in the right section admin! I found a strange phenomenen with this Sagemcom Freesat jobbie. Every time I keyed up on the 2m ham band this unit was kicking over to HDMI 1 on the TV (what the hell?). What I can't understand is that I can put ANY Sky box on and it does not do it so I have had to go back to the Sky PVR for now until I can get my head around this problem. This morning when I had the Freesat unit in place I disconnected both LNB cables and it didn't do it (what a surprise). I'm in a catch 22 situation. I could buy a Humax Freesat PVR and try that and if the problem persists put some ferrite rings in the LNB cables?
In the meantime, I have rung Sky and got my package reduced to the basics. £11.50 a month won't break the bank until I can solve this Freesat problem!
Gentlemen! Over to you!
