    The frequency range over the air is limited for mmds. There is very little space left in the mmds range, in you area and many other areas. Thus the amounts of channels you may get is restricted at this point.

    I know it is not good news and you would like to hear you can get more channels. Ask anyone you know around your area if they are gettin more channels and if so what are thier CC.

    You could try this tip by Fergus as it might help, (not sure with MMDS signal).

    I have seen a few posts about channels missing when doing a full scan.
    Here's a little trick you can try that may help if you're having problems
    finding any particular channels or are missing channels:
    Try and determine the lowest transponder frequency that you can get a signal on.
    Look at the frequencies you already have on the channels saved so far and choose the lowest.
    Then in the installation menu select MANUAL SCAN and set that as the frequency.
    Make sure you can see a signal and scroll down to Network scan and change to ENABLE with the Right arrow.
    While still highlighted, click OK.
    Scanning should then begin. It will say 1/1 to start with but should then jump up to 1/?? (the ?? being 2 digits).
    Using this method my Starview indicated it scanned 56/56 transponder frequencies as opposed to 48 in Auto scan on one main provider.
    I also gained a few extra channels.
    The other transponders may have been picked up by scanning other providers.

    P.S. Apologies for jumpin in Ryan.

    Worth given Fergus's trick a go as I have heard of people picking up other CC providers overlay frequencies. Geographically dependent though as said.

    Thanks for the info Digital is this for all areas, i.e, Dublin , Cork , Galway etc.
