Can this be received with any FTA box? I have an echostar - or do I need a Sky outfit - box and card etc. Chief - very, very hot Toulouse - too hot for Widnes ;-))))

Thanks for that Steve - I actually went back to the shop - they were unsure - so they unpacked another receiver - which didn't have a display - at least the guy in the shop gave me a manual in French as the ones supplied with my receiver were in Dutch and German - which I don't speak or...

I don't fancy doing that as the shop may refuse to take it back - if indeed there should be some kind of channel display. Thanks Rolf - I can now pick up BBC West Chief

I live in South West France between carcassone and Toulouse - I have an Echostar DSB 880 2Ci that picks up all the BBC channels you could wish to shake a hairy stick at with ITV 3 + loads of FTA channels - we have a DVB Cam and a TPS card (11 Euros a month) to get all the French channels - I...

Thanks for the above 2 messages Rolf - I guess logically that it should show something otherwise there would be no window. As far as the BBC channels - I'm gonna check to see if I have the above - from memory I don't think so but I know I have London; Midlands, East, North West and Yorkshire...

I have just bought an Echostar DSB 880 2Ci and have a small question. On the front panel there is a black perspex window that on most satellite receivers lights up with the channel N° etc. Mine remains blank although the receiver works well - but I can get all local BBC 1 channels except BBC1...

Can somebody please help me? I have a Nokia Mediamaster 9800s with two dishes - one on Astra 28° and one on Hotbird - up until recently I had no problems - fantastic picture all channels etc. then suddenly I have two horizontal lines that go down or up the picture as two light bands which makes...

Can anyone help me - I have a Nokia 9800s Mediamaster with two dishes in France - just recently there are two horizontal lines - or more like lights that slowly go up the screen. I have unplugged and removed the video - tried changing scart cables and re-installed the receiver. I have checked...

Hi Can somebody please help me to locate the receiver upgrade software for my ICE FC 2003. I think the receiver is a clone of an 'Xtreme Hornet', although it looks physically nothing like it. Any pointers to web sites etc. would be most welcome as i'm having a real job receiving TPS - especially...
