Channel interference

Eurovox EX5000 PVR. Whilst watching some signal interference and visual and sound distortion occurs. On the epg guide the channel mode is stated as scrambled. Is this normal? If not, as the case may be, how do I rectify the problem?

 

Its a problem with your signal and not the box.

 

But the signal levels on every channel are 85% +...

 

yes but there could be interference with your local cable provider.

 

Normal cable services are fine and dandy though. I don't get the problem...

 

where are you based?and have you got your box split in any way?and are you using a subbed box?

 

Norwich city centre. The box isn't split. Not too sure what you mean by subbed but I don't think it is...

 

I just mean have you a cable co box as well.

 

Yes, but we're not using it.

 

so how do you no there isn't a problem in your area,or work going on?try checking your connections on the box and make sure they are fixed securely.

 

Thats the first thing I did, I am not a complete degenerate. I have even tested with the old box and thats fine. the signal is usually very good here.

 

well maybe you should have said that that was the first thing you done,and then we could have eliminated that option,85% is perfect so unless someone else has a suggestion i can only assume that again there is work going on.
