Bought a 12db attenuator from Maplins and using that along with the 0-20db from Maplins i've managed to reduce the signal and quality to 80% and hence get perfect reception... thanks for the suggestion... works a treat now.
Hi ShaneyMac/JSCButler/anyone, I'm still having the problem with mine - picking up no channels whatsoever. Swapped boxes with my mate and his is the same here. Tried a 12db attenuator with the variable one and no joy, bought another 12 and a 6 and tried all different combinations but nothing. I can get the reminants of a picture on a couple of channels by fiddling with the variable attenuator but cant get anything anywhere near watchable. Had Verjin out and they kindly gave me a new box because the old one was taking forever to start up but said nothing wrong with the signal All channels fine on Verjin box. On EVox my signal strength bounces up and down all the time between 80 and 85 then 8 for a split second (without the attenuators). With attenuators, when I get it to bounce between 72-75 a still blocky picture appears, then it disappears and the no signal message appears... Was this happening with you??? Have been a couple of months now with no signal on all channels -thinking of just putting it back on Ebay unless anyone's got any suggestions??
