Title: Freeview boxes/ones with cards Post by: Reeves for King on Sunday, February 24, 2008, 23:39:26 I've got a Freeview box with Setanta on, but when I tried to set it up it wouldn't pick up any channels but I'm in a Freeview area. Does anyone have one of these and advise cos the troubleshooting tips are fucking shit

If so, the I guess the 3 most likely options are (in no particular order): 1. You are not in a freeview area. The website predicts reception and does not account for local distortions - if the neighbours have it you should be OK. 2. Your aerial is of the wrong type for a digital signal and will need upgrading. 3. Your aerial is pointing at the wrong transmitter. 4. You freeview box is stuffed - test it in someone elses house where freeview already works. |
