Cheers for your help mate :)

To recive the channels on the SL65 I had to have the LNB to 25mins PAST the hour, for the skyboxes it is a few degrees from vertical. I have had a play around with the frequencies of the SL65 and managed to get the programs back so all boxes are now working :)
I just wanna say a massive thanks...
What I have done is move the LNB slightly and this has now worked with the SKY boxes, the neighbour that I went to who has the dish doesnt actually use his sky box anymore so now I have 2, both with cards and both working :D

Thanks :)
OK, just got hold of a Thomson DS14214C with the card, I know the card needs to be reactivated or a I need to get a new one.
Plugged the receiver in but it says no signal, the box itself appears to be working as I can get all of the menus, is this a dud or do I have to do something...
Now that I have my SL65 all hooked up and working, is it possible to swap the receiver for a sky one and still get the FTA channels & FTV if I buy the card?
