Eurovox low signal

Hey guys i got a eurovox max 08 in telepest area.

i did a factory default after i was getting only 8% quality and signal.

i then did a power scan it was still the same and plus i noticed that some programs like discovery was missing.

can you plz help me fix these problems..
cheers

 

Have you done a full powerscan and not just a normal one.

 

hi yeh i did an normal one

and do you know why i am getting such a low signal

 

Set symbol rate at 6952 and try again.

 

hi..
yh its already at that symbol rate..

what should i do plz help am going nuts

thanks

 

hi..
i done a full powerscan instead of a normal one and now i cant view any channels it keeps saying that there is no signal and its still at 8% i was hoping that after the powerscan i would get a better signal

 

Do you have a VM box also and is this working fine?

Try a FULL powerscan directly from the incoming feed take away any splitters, attenuators or equalisers.

 

yes i have got a vm box..its working fine.

i did the FULL powerscan and i dont have a spliter or any other gadgets attatched to it and still the same problem..missing some chanels and about 8% signal and quality..

the other day i took out the f connector out of the rf connector and the pin from the inside came out .. now where you shake the conncector itself there is something loose inside..

could that be causing it.

plz help thanks

 

If you are talking about the F type connector on the end of your lead yes if this is loose you will need to replace it as this will cause a signal loss which you are experiencing, you can buy twist on F connectors in Maplins.

 

thanks mate

will try so do you think this is causing the prob and after i buy the new part would i be ale to do anoter powersacn and recieve the lost channels
..
thanks mate

 

Yes that is more than likely your problem and yes you will be able to preform a powerscan then.

 

cheers mate

you been very helpful just hopes this works

will keep you in touch..

thanks

 

hey again

i was watching uktv food and i noticed that the level was abov 70% but then when i go to any other channels its 8%

anything wrong??

plz help

thanks

 

Have you checked all your cabling?

 

what do you mean??

the coaxial cable is like 25m long where as the box and the main stream is just like a metre away

 

hi just replaced the f connector it made no differnece.

plz help all channels are frezzing at 8%

 

I have been told that the symptoms you are having indicate a faulty box send it back to your supplier and ask for a replacement.

 

thanks will do
