    Greetings all and congrats to "Celtic71" for all the great work which has allowed me to get through my installation with ease (ie reading previous posts!)

    Kildare area m**s c****S service using the box-t as of last night but i have a couple of questions,
    using sagem box there is a total of 85 stations available but with the box-t this is limited to 72 stations (it detected 92) so there is a handful missing ie sulatana 2 david and virginity and a few others, any ideas on forcing these in,

    the frequencies it is giving me are from 234.000 -378.000 mhz (16.000 increments)

    i can not get the clock to set correctly, played with +/- gmt, adjusted summer time setting but remains one hour behind so epg is an issue

    how often does the "pad lock" data get changed if ever?

    thanks for reading

    First of all are you using a splitter on your cable if so you need to take this off first

    second question did you enable the antenna power when starting the scanning

    what is the last freq it has scanned in

    what is the first it brings in as well

    how many channels do you have now exactly

    many thanks for answering,
    the signal from the aerial is going into the adaptor and from there is going into the back of the box=t
    i am unsure of antena power so i will check and revert

    the last frequency is 378.000
    the first is 250.000 but 234.000 is checked after this
    first station is sultana ire last is bbc4 at 70 followed by radio and guide at 71 and 7 respectivly
    to confirm 72 stations are available however when connecting the sagem there is 85, as mentioned sultana 2, david, virginity paramount 2 are not listed,

    what do u think

    Try a manual on 290.000 and 306.000 not sure if you will get them or not as if you have the full package on the cc box you will only get what they carry no matter what any other area say they get

    Glad you are sorted now as with everything it is trial and error until we get it correctly
