But your box can only measure the signal received at the box which has to be the same for all channels, surely you need to measure the signal at the dish to see if there are any differences. As far as complaints about picture quality I am seeing quite a few on these forums and only a small...

Thanks for the advice however I was hoping you would have answered my specific question.

Re my earlier posts. The aeriel engineer duly arrived but after looking at the age of our digibox he felt that this may be our problem and rather than waste money trying to repair an old system we may be better off, ie cheaper cost, to upgrade. Since we are wondering whether to get Sky HD this...

Might that be because your alignment is much better than mine, the aerial engineer's first comment about my poor picture quality was "That's because Setanta is one of the weaker signals from the satellite, and you need perfect alignment to pick it up well". Yours appears to be above 80% on both...

184 says Tech fault 866 is OK. I have arranged for an aerial company to check out the alignment and the LNB, hopefully they will be able to improve the signal strength and quality. If they can I then need to decide whether to keep Setanta, but I also want it improved just in case I decide to...

Can you be more specific, ie how do I change the LNB? All Sky channels are on 11585 H not just LFC & Arsenal.

Further to my last posting Setanta have responded to my refund request with a resounding no, pointing to clause 5 e "Liability" of their terms and conditions. "Not liable due to any failure to provide the service caused by events outside their resonable control". This means that despite not...

Over the last 3 weeks I have talked with several Setanta customer service staff and all of them have advised that the Setanta signal is weaker than the normal Sky channels, at their choice, and that it utilises the same satellite as Sky and Sky manage the transmission, and they have no current...

OK maybe your right, BUT why not try to provide a considered reason as to why the 2 main Setanta sports channels have such poor reception whereas their other channels are satisfactory as are all other satellite channels on my system. I hardly think it would be in Setantas interest to limit...

Have just subscribed to Setanta on Satellite (Sky system) and having similar problems on main channels but have been receiving Liverpool, Arsenal etc channels OK, last 2 days have been receiving "Tech fault" or "No Satellite signal" messages, in the last few minutes I am now getting a signal but...
