Current set up with old Sky box and 1.45m dish working ok.
Have just received Sky + HD box (1yr old) with white card (assume paired). Swopped boxes over & tried to set the new box up but cannot get past the message - NO SATELLITE SIGNAL IS BEING RECEIVED. Have tried resetting the default transponder to several new frequencies - 12129V, 12207v, 11739V and others, but nothing seems to work. Can anyone help? :mad: & :confused:
 
Welcome to the forum.

How many feeds do you have? If one feed, make sure you enable LNb1 single feed mode on the receiver.

On a clear day the default North beam Tp shouldn't be a problem with a 1.45m.
 
Thanks for the quick reply.
Have only 1 feed and yes I'm using LNB1 at the rear of the HD box.
Still no luck though!
 
Single Feed Mode, try this:

> Make sure feed is plugged into Dish Input 1
> Press Services
> Press Right Arrow and highlight Settings
> Press Down Arrow and highlight Picture
> Press 01 Select
> The Installer setup tab will now appear
> Scroll down and select the Single Feed Mode option
> Press the Right Arrow and change it from OFF to ON
> Press the Green Button to Save the settings, press select

Let the box reboot and your done.
 
Great stuff!!
Thanks for your help - can now get Channel 4 - HD as well.
Do you know what the frequency for ITV is? could it be 11973?
