    Evening Folks,
    First of all i have trawled through the whole forum on the above topic but to no avail...

    Just brought a eurovox box over from norht london to zurich (where i live now) and can't seem to get any cable channels at all. I live in a flat with a live cable point which is served by cablecom (swiss cable company). not sure which signal rate to even start scanning on

    Can anyone help me?? the mrs is just about to give up and move back to london if she can't watch coronation street apparently :)

    Thanks for your help,
    Mike

    For instance:

    306 mhz, symbol rate 6900, qam256
    370 mhz, symbol rate 6900, qam64

    Btw cablecom is using nagra2.

    Nagra2 is the scrambling system and i don't think your eurovox support that system.

    Jeez sir, thanks. think it found a handfull of channels on the symbol rate advised.. just got a "please wait, code being updated" message the past 45mins.. fingers crossed


    anything i can do to mitigate the niagra2 problem? possible to unscramble some more channels?

    cheers

    You bought the wrong box for auto update.
    Some channels are using both the old nagra1 and the new nagra2 simultaniously.
    You could try to edit the keys manually.
