Eurovox Scanned and lost everything!

hi all,
hope you are all well.
i must admit to a big mistake.my old eurovox was working fine,until i had the bright! idea of conducting a powerscan.
confidently set the box to powerscan and lost all the bloody channels!.the wife hasnt stopped laughing,the kids are looking at me with a "what a twat" face.

any ideas why the box powerscanned and lost all channels?

cheers lads

 

hi i have lost all channels without doing power scan at all so must be for all am on west yorks though

 

depends where u are, in the UK a lot of places are down, some not mentioned on the the VM service page as being down. I take it that all the cables are in and not pulled out, factory reset, rescan on yer provider and see what comes in

 

sorry just to add, guys ya need to start checking the VM service page for probs in yer areas, should be yer first port of call. The service in the UK the last few days has been up and down like a porn stars ass.

Leeds is down again and so is surrounding areas.

 

hi mickah,thanks for the reply.
ive checked all leads and connections.it does list all the channels when its scanning,but the scan is over it just says"service unknown"

it's an old blue eurovox,perhaps its had its day.i really wanted it to last until n3 took over though.
any over thoughts?
cheers

 

did ya facory reset and rescan from fresh? You choosing the correct provider?

Where u based?

 

forgot to add,
ive also got an vm box connected via a splitter and that seems to be working fine?
cheers

 

grand,

factory reset and scan on yer provider, 6952 is the baud rate for TW area, 6887 is for old nthell area, do a full scan mate, will take 30 mins or so and ya should be grand

 

Kirklees/West Yorkshire?

 

thanks mickah,
i'll give that a shot later.i hope it works..the kids are giving me the "bad dad"treatment!.
cheers

Tell em if they dont eat their sprouts I will send a Virus down the cable and knock their box out!!! Trust me, grown men believe that one!!
