Newbie

Hi im in Limerick and was wandering if 69 channels is the most you can get with chorus MMDS in the area.

if not can someone supply a channel frequency list if at all possible.

if there isnt anymore sorry to bother ye but was reading on this site that someone had 93 channels on chorus mmds but maybe that was in dublin area if that makes a difference

yup, depends on the area. Different areas have different amount of channels, mmds hasnt as much bandwidth as cable so you wont find as much.

But should be more than 69 channels for Limerick MMDS area. Looks like a TP is missing.

Hi There.
Im having problems with my digivox and chorus mmds aerial in Cork.
When I go to scan for programs it does not pick up anything.
I have the digivox connected to a downconverter and this is connected to a chorus aerial on my roof. I have not had chorus before but it is in a chorus area. Any ideas? Could this be an issue with the aerial or am I missing something?

Thanks,
Kevin.

Have you got a "power inserter" ? As in, a power supply to the down converter. The down converter needs 18v-24v to work, without one of them, ya may as well have a coat hanger jammed in the back of the box.

Hi Lads,
The latest image file is digivox_ter_v3310.bin. The box is a digivox t and the down converter is a 24v. The downconverter is down by the digivox. Is this the correct place for it?

I've just turned on the emu but when I go back to the auto scan it says 0 programs found.

Am I missing something else here or do you think there is no signal getting through?

Thanks

Hi Lads,
The antenna power is set to on and the coax cable is plugged into antenna in.
I also done a factory reset and still no joy.

Anymore thoughts before I start climbing back onto my roof?

if your using your own aerial and downconverter you will need to scan on different frequencies, I think its trial and error
If theres a digital tuner in your tv plug it onto the tv and scan on that

there is not as many channels on mmds as there is on regular cable,on cable about 140,but on mmds 70 or so is about right.it has to do with bandwidht,they can only fit in so many channels,but when rte 3 and tg4 go digital it will free space and hopefully double your channels(as they share the same space in the airways)terrestrial is what comes through an ariel,either cabel or rte etc,but they only have so much space,so cable digital,must share with rte etc, and when rte etc go digital more space will be created.rte etc is analogue,cable is digital,there is only x amount of space on the bandwidht,in analogue =rte1/rte2/tv3/tg4 plus about 70 digital cable channels,when the 4 irish channels go digital, you will have double the space for tv channels in digital,so then you will have about 150 channels.

Hi,
I am new to site and have query. I have Digivox-T alsmost 5 months now with Ver 3300 firmware. Recently Summer time kicked in and I cannot get the time to change in User Set Up. I have tried everything and the only way I can get the right time is by setting time to Auto and setting summer time to on. I can also set time without auto but it does not accepy in EPG. Whatever way I do it the EPG time is always one hour behind even though the program list is right i.e EPG shows time 3-4pm but programs are for 4-5pm.

Appreciate any help.
