    Sky Hd Box On The Fritz

    I told him which ones i wasn't gettng. Animal Planet HD, Watch HD and Eden HD. This evening, Nat Geo HD started going the same way. These were all checked literally minutes after the new PSU was fitted - all were fine. We never tested it before the PSU was replaced. Curiouser and curiouser eh? :)

    Sky Hd Box On The Fritz

    Hi again CH, just tried this and sadly, to no avail. Did both inputs separately changed the settings to single view and tried the errant channels. Diddly Squat i'm sorry to say!! Looking more and like a Mutton Jeff LNB. I ran this problem past Sky earlier this afternoon and even though i did a...

    Sky Hd Box On The Fritz

    Got up on the ladder and checked the connections yesterday morning. Both solid, no water damage at all as the pull-down cover (Thomson Quad LNB) totally covers the F connectors and down about an inch and a bit over the cable. Wiped the cap of the LNB with a soft cloth and no apparent damange...

    Sky Hd Box On The Fritz

    Hi CH, no.... can't say that i have. This actually hadn't crossed my mind at all. Not entirely sure what this would change (not as tech minded as i could be!!). What happens?

    Sky Hd Box On The Fritz

    I'm still on my original Sky HD box (a 5 year old Thomson) which i have had repaired only once when it needed a new PSU board. I got an upgraded capacitor one off eBay and a local SatCure guy fitted it for me, and he upgraded my old PSU board with Panasonic capacitiors so i would have a spare...

    Olympics - waste of time or great fun - poll

    I can't wait for the charade to be over and done with. My take is that knowing the U.K., this is going to one giant Pigs Butt to eclipse all other Pigs Butts over the years. :)

    North Korean TV back on 10E

    WOW!! This would be really interesting to have a gander at. I regularly fall about laughing at some of the clips on YouTube from NKTV. The news reader reporting the death of KIJ was a masterpiece of staged grief. I almost wet myself!! :):)

    Sky Box...... whirring noises!!

    Not usually at home during the day, and i never noticed this in the evening as in all probability, the volume of the TV drowns out the noise. But i am have been working in the lounge over the last couple of days and i've noticed that several times a day, there is this whirring noise coming from...

    Eurobird 9 No or Bad Signal......

    I've just had a thought about all this. I'm wondering why my old TM5200D box wouldn't pick up the new TP that RM TV is now now, but the new box does? I've noticed that there are some HD channels on TP12054 and whether this has anything to do with it, but when you scan, doesn't any box pick up...
