  1. Has anyone had any experience of one of these little gadgets....
  2. Have a look at Free.fr...we pay 29.99 per month and get all french calls free ( except mobile) and most international ( inc UK USA spain etc)...also ADSL...we do not have a FT line and all seems to work well although we  did have a problem that when it went dark the line went off...but now fixed and no probs
  3. I have been looking at this service....see www.fon.com...does anyone have any experience and/or views
  4. All the missing channels seem to be on Astra 2D...is that significant ??
  5. Just been checking and find I can receive some channels but not BBC ITV C4 C5.....can get as I have said Sky 3 but also amongst others Sc4 Zone Reality Zone Thriller Film 24 Info Tv  (ch 166) BBC Alba Red (ch180) Ben (ch 184) Nuts TV (ch 196) Pulse (197) Sky news (ch 501) BBC news 24 (ch 503) I think means the cabling from the box to the dish must  be OK...would you agree....could it be that LNB is not picking up all channels and is there any link with the one I am receiving.
  6. OK..i have swapped boxes over and when I tried the good working box the result was the same as with the poor box ( radio and Sky 3 only) So I imagine the problem must be with cabling to LNB or the LNB itself.....do you agree or is it likly to be anything else
  7. no yet.....I shall do that this next and  report  back...your help is much appreciated
  8. Thanks for all info Here is the info you have asked for Both boxes are Pace DS430N and are connected to the  same dish which has 2 LNB's The readings are :                                                 For box with reception                                              For Box without reception                                                                                                                               Except Sky 3 and radio Signal strength                             about 50 %                                                            about 80% Signal quality                                about  90%                                                            about 90% Lock indicator                                OK                                                                         OK Network ID                                   0002                                                                      0002 Transport stream                           07d4                                                                      07d4 Hope this all means something... I can signal strength is much lower on poor performing box 
  9. But I am receiving Sky 3 tv perfectly...and all radio stations......can I dust swap one card to another sky box ?
  10. Thanks for all advice. I am going to swap  over the two boxes I have to see if the problem is the same. If is solves the problem then either the box or card is at fault..if not it must be the LNB I guess......any ideas how I can illimiate the card as being at fault
  11. The dish has 2 LND (?) and the other TV is perfect so I guess it is aligned OK...would you agree....how do I do a software download please
  12. Cathy just tried that but no change..exactly as before Sky 3 and radio all OK
  13. Just setting up my TV and sky box. No problems with Samsung TV. I have been using the skybox for BBC Radio 4 upyo now and it has been perfect. But Tv screen is telling me "No satellite signal is being received" However BBC Radio 4 and other radio stations all fine and so is TV station Sky 3. I do not have Sky subscription. Can anyone help me please with any advice
