Staring at the rude boys
My boy has bought a flat and there is a communal dish on it. He doesn't want to subscribe to sky, just watch free channels.
I got a Sky +HD box for free as I thought you could watch BBC, ITV etc without a card. Connected the cables up but no channels detected. Thought it might be a duff box so I got an old Humax Freesat box out of the loft whixh I used to use about 8 years ago.
That one gets a signal on one of the LNB feeds but would not auto-tune. I did a manual tune and all I could pick up was stuff like Punjabi TV on channels 5001 onwards, nothing on channels 1/101 etc...
Any ideas anyone ?
Suggestions of "have you tried turning it off an on again ?" especially welcome
