Univers/U4101
Pointed at Astra & Hotbird

Hi folks,
I've been cruising around here for a while now and I'm completely stumped. We moved to Germany last May and bought a second hand digi-receiver from a guy who was leaving. We currently have an LNB pointed at Hotbird for AFN and one pointed at Astra for use with our other sat box.
So, on to my dilema. I have a U4101, Univers made by K.F.T. The only info I've found about this thing is that its some kind of clone of a starsat 1500 series. The few threads I have found are in portuguese mostly and thats just not any help to me at all.
I ran through the box yesterday and here's the specs.
S/W version V5.2.5
Updated last 30 Apr 2004
Loader Ver V1.0.3
RS232 connection in back
The box is great, nice clear picture, NTSC or PAL, gets tons of channels from either of our LNB's, doesn't like both feeds at the same time though for some reason.
The "problem" is that among all these channels, we don't get the two we want. I want Eurosport(any language at this point) and my wife wants CNN international.
If anybody has ANY experience with this box, your help would be greatly appreciated. Also, I'd love any other tips you can throw my way or which box you would recommend for me to get in case there's no helping the one I have now.
Many thanks in advance!
Tom
