Hi.

I subscribed to sky a few years ago and received a pace box. I unsubscribed to sky a while back and ever since the box has been inactive in a closet. Just a week ago, I turned the box on so I could have freeview in my bedroom, however, true movies 1 & 2 and most of the music channels are blocky in picture and the sound is stuttery. This is not the case with the other channels (e.g. ITV1,2,3,4,bbc, etc)

Has anyone any ideas on whats goin' on here?

Cheers.

Dan.

I had this problem sometimes with one of my boxes. All the channels you listed are on the same transponder and in my case close proximity of the base station for the land-line telephone is what caused interference. Sounds like you might have a similiar problem?
