I have been experimenting with a Panasonic box on Astra 1 and finding channels can be difficult. Often it says no signal found and the second time it usually works. It does not seem to like changing satellites and then says no satellite is being received. The channel NO Zap on 11460 H cannot be found at all. Is this because it uses the whole transponder apart from an interactive service? My Humax box works fine on this. Has anyone else had the same problem? I was thinking of buying a switch from http://www.sfmuk.com/

Thanks

David

Hi David, the digibox, as you've found out is not very user friendly on non-Sky satellites. I'm not sure about the single channel per transponder question as I've never tried it, I may have a go later if I have time.

Beware of the littleswitch, there's a thread about this earlier and it doesn't work well with all digiboxes.
