Rolf, I have eventually solved the problem, after many permutations of cable swapping and settings, I could still get everything except channel 4 and 5 (the only reason for having a digibox). I purchased a Quad LNB (not Quatro), and the problem was instantly fixed. I have set up the Multiswitch...

Hi Rolf, I think I have located the problem, I think the Vertical High connection on the LNB is faulty. I have done a complete process of elimination with the coax cables (swapping and changing) to check that all the cables and connections are OK. I can get all the BBC and ITV channels without...

Yes, ITV2 no problem, the only thing that doesn't seem to be right is that Channel 4 and Channel 5 do not work, it says Channel not working due to a technical problem, try again later. Other than that it seems that I can get the other channels. I will check for your comments again tomorrow, then...

Thanks for the continued support Kevin

OK I have sorted it out. The LNB settings are now: 9.75 10.60 ON OFF Obviously the "off" being the difference Thanks again for all you time and effort, without which I would not have progressed to get the thing sorted out Cheers for now Kevin

I have found the hidden menu and the LNB setting is as you show above. I have tried the New Installation and it shows me "No default transponder found" I will now chack all the connections to once again ensure that all is functioning well.

What I don't understand is that it reads a single lnb, but not the quad (quattro) there seems to be no setting to change from single to quad, does it matter which lnb type is used?

Yes, I have just rechecked to make sure and all three are there with excellent reception

Sorry for the dely, somehow the picture size was too big. Anyway I have made a pdf picture of it. ;)

The transponder is 11778, not 11788, (I can't read sometimes), so that is OK. The LNB (LMB was typo) has Horiz high, Horiz low, Vert high and Vert low, NOT four identical outputs. How do I attach a picture of the Multiswitch? The attach image button above asks for the URL. I am running a...

Done that, still no joy. More info hopefully to help you help me. 1. 11788 V excellent reception on non sky box. 2. I moved the dish so that Astra 2 is the centre (main) lmb. and Astra 1 offset lmb. used single lmb to get disk position, sky box works fine with single lmb. 3. Replaced the single...

Thanks for the reply, the multiswitch has DiseqC 2.0 and I have Astra 2 as satelite one input on the multiswitch. Is this what you mean? If so it is with this setup that it says No Satelite Signal.

I live in Germany and receive Astra 2 (28.2E) and Astra 1 (19.2E) using 2 x normal quad lmb's through a multiswitch, with no problem. I have bought a Skydigibox and Free View card but is says "no satelite signal". If I mount a single lmb (28.2E) and connect direct to the digibox, all works OK...
