Hi, Now that I am receiving the channels from Astra/Eurobird 28.2 again, I notice that I am missing BBC 3 and BBC 4, along with some others like Zone Romantica. Is there any way to manually add these in, if the scanning does not pick them up? Oh, I have a Fortec Star Sigma receiver hooked up...

Turns out that my dish was out of alignment. I was quite surprised actually, as it's been sitting there for years even before I decided to try and hook it up to a receiver for EuroBird channels. But it was just a minor adjustment, and everything is back. Thank you all for your help and useful...

Hi all, I am new to this forum, so I apologise now for any niave questions/comments. Can anyone tell me if they were getting a signal last night on Eurobird (FreeSat)? I got absolutely nothing, and am quite frustrated because I missed "Flash Forward" last night... I have a Fortec Star box, and...
