    Recently got a Digivox -T, downloaded the V3.300 bin file, giving us
    Model Name Digivox-T
    S/W V03-3.000T
    Boot Version 01
    Date 22.DEC.2008
    After scan we did the
    Press 1004 on the remote control
    Turned EMU to ON

    Result of the scan, only channels we could get was at frequency of 666, and 8Mhz. We only got 8 channels, these were RTE 1&2, TG4 and TV3, with 4 Irish radio stations as well. The TV channels were only audio as well.
    Other increments of 8 above and below 666 yielded zero strengtht and quality
    .
    At the outset, Antenna power was set to ON, and we had an 90% quality and signal at frequency 666


    Then we found we didn’t do the channel dump, so uploaded that file, listing 87 channels, and when we went back in to auto scan, we didn’t get any channels whatsoever

    We have gone thru a good few Blogs on this forum trying to eliminate all possibilities, no joy so far, but looking for help in getting past the last few final steps
    Are we searching at the wrong frequencies?

    We are located in Donoughmore direction in Cork, if anyone around there could assist, your help would be greatly appreciated

    Who set your aerial up?
    Im asuming this isnt a chorus subbed aerial? therefore a channel dump file is no good.
    If im correct in that you need to get a list of the proper frequencies/transponders(get it from that channel dump) and work out which one you were getting channels in on(666) and then calculate out the rest of them from there

    thanks Cathaldub

    Box and MMDS aerial purchased from iwantabo*,
    seems to be a good line for reception, so picked signal up straightaway once we knew the direction
    Quality is at 60-70% though, could that be our problem?

    your quality is going to give you trouble below 70% , only thing i suggest is check your keys in hidden menu.

    Problem is that your channels will not be on the frequencies listed int he channel dump, did you try what I posted earlier?

    Gone thru all the above, still reackon we need to do some hardware fixes (enhance sat connections for the co-ax cables and try and raise the aerial higher)

    Quality is at 45% with 30 chanels received so we will just keep plugging away with the frequencies and improve quality.

    Thanks to all for your help

    If you put the aerial a few feet higher but check it before you make it [permanent]it should increase the quality and if that does nothing worthwhile consider testing aerial in a different location as there could be a major obstruction at your current point.
