Chrissie Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 We finally took the "house" card out of both Sky boxes as fed up with the banner.For the last three days, one box is fine (missing Ch 5 etc but who cares?) . The other box has taken to losing a load of channels. They are just not there at all. This includes BBC1, BBC2 - sometimes but not always, ITV London which for us is on 993 - always goes, Channel 4+1 etc etc. It's infuriating. In order to get them back I have to unplug the machine and then re-plug and wait. Even doing this I can't get 993 back and have had to put the card back in. Then 993 eventually re-appears.What is going on?[:(]Chrissie (81) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave&Olive Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 hi ok plug the card back in when the box is still on depending what area the card was programed to you might get all your channels back Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaughat Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 HiI've been having problems over the last few days as well, thats on my Humax freesat and a sky box with a paid for card, sometimes the BBC channels indicate no signal whilst the ITV channels are still OK, same can happen for CH4 or 5. more4 and E4. They all come back of their own accord without me doing anything.Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyh4 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Chrissiewhat region do you get on 103?We had a similar experience when we got a new white card that our chosen BBC region disappeared. In fact the new card had this region as the standard (101) region. Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissie Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 Our 103 was "ITV Central SW" - always had the same progarammes as ITV London, so we just look at 993 now. I understand (see another thread) that local ITV channels do disappear when the house card is removed, but BBC1?.........It's fine at the moment (fingers crossed) maybe that's since the foot of snow melted last night[8-)]!Chrissie (81) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneySuckleDreams Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Has any one found a resolution to this? I seem to have lost a load of radio stations. I can't get BBC4LW, but CAN get R5SportsX (for the cricket). But i can't get a load of other radio stations either. They did briefly make an appearance one evening, but have gone again.Could it be a dish alignment issue? H or V issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
