Nope that statement just shows how ignorant you are on LNB and dishes and haven't done a simple Google / Bing to find out more... https://www.satcure.co.uk/tech/lnb.htm is a good basic start. A SCR LNB might be available for a prime focus dish? https://www.satellitesuperstore.com/lnbs.htm may...

@Black Hole I never read it as the HDR-Fox-T2 had reception issues. Only the TV on pass-through... although a second look at line 2 of the original post, I see it could easily be read as the HDR-Fox-T2 having problem. I took it as the TV tuner only... and immediately suspected the power save...

PVR's RF O/P connector or the fly lead female to male is where my money is on... But the new cable direct is the better solution; and you can save energy with the power saving in standby option now! Bonus.

But you can't get a wideband LNB to fit a dish like the OP has... The Triax module takes the Quattro inputs (or a Quad as it happens) and will then allow dSCR (single cable up to 16 tuners on specific IF frequencies, called for by the receiver box) to be sent on two outputs and legacy mode on...

Kilvey Hill transmitter (Swansea). A group A Vertically polarised transmitter (and always has been). Those signal level numbers aren't the full story (need Q, too) but show a relatively weak signal in to my eyes. {Frequency ch 27 is the HD multiplex.} But if all channels are working on the...

No need for LNB change at the dish (in any case there is no compatible $ky wideband LNB as far as I know for prime focus dishes). The freesat 4k box will work with dSCR (single cable) as well as wideband and universal/legacy feeds. So a replacement of (or add-on to) the multiswitch will do the...

Why? You'll find most of them will be 'IP blocked' in Switzerland without a very, very good VPN service and they are anyways typically better supported via devices like FireTV sticks. The Foxsat-HDR once upon a time did some On Demand stuff but has been dropped by the broadcasters from...

Yep. Most strange. Open er up and disconnect the HDD cables --- does the remote and box then behave ? The Foxsat-HDR has a text display that shows "BOOT" in a white/blue lettering when switched on from standby... and other stuff in addition to a red light. OP has no mentions of that...

First thing to do is a fix-disk using the maintenance mode and you'll need telnet . You should have done that rather than reformatting the disk in the first place. See the WebIF documentation> Custom Firmware > Custon Apps (preinstalled) tab. A >1TB disk needs setting up (formatting and...

Arris is aka freesat 4k box. Very, very long thread on AVForums about it and a search there and/or DigitalSpy are possibly most likely to bear fruit? https://www.freesat.co.uk/help/4k-tv-boxes/general-troubleshooting/problems-connecting-wifi suggests a box restart and then using ethernet cable...

Definitely an antenna (aerial) problem I'd concur. Check and remake the connections from it first... wallplate / aerial plug. Many, many reception problems are down to dodgy connections. https://www.aerialsandtv.com/knowledge/how-to-attach-wire-up-plugs-aerials-and-wall-plates show how to...

So 95% of the locations in the prediction square are Served to the less than 1% of time interference level. Less than 1% of time is still up to 3.65 days or 87.6 hours of interference though. Typically such interference lasts minutes to at most a few hours once or twice a day when the...

Com7/8 were never available from TW or Heathfield. Only CP and Bluebell Hill could have been potential sources of those temporary transmitters in the SouthEast of England. BBC4HD/CBeebies HD is available now on the BBC B HD multiplex as a Timex service...

Check the predictions of interference for your location at https://www.freeview.co.uk/corporate/detailed-transmitter-information and post the two Served and Marginally served figures (% of locations in the 100m x 100m prediction square) for ch 48. Define what you mean by other boxes "are not...

No idea why you think that. TW was one of the first 81 DTT sites with 6 multiplexes and even had C5 analogue before DTT. I'm certain that Heathfield never got the COM7 or 8 DVB-T2 temporaries (interference to the Continent reasons in part). I guess Heathfield DTT might have been on air...
