Oldlegs · 2013-10-11 09:06:45

My freesat dish appears to have shifted and I have lost my sat channels. All other connection appear to be fine. Anyone local got any suggestions or could have a quick look for me ? Tx

You probably just need to do a rescan. There has been a lot of shifting around of channels in the last few days. See this thread over in the Satellite forum ...

Is it just a handful of channels or all channels?

All the Sat channels are gone - but DTT still OK (different ariel).

I did a rescan but still no joy. They have been gone for 4+ weeks, so doubt anything to do with the frequency lineup

Also, did loaded up the channel line-up directly from USB stick, as there were issue with the Triax box, but no joy.

Will have a look over in the other forum also, but I am really just looking for someone local to have a quick look see rather than trying a new box etc.

Get your hands on a satellite locator and connect it direct to the cable at the back of the STB. If you have a signal, then its probably bad software or badly configured box i.e. wrong satellites selected
