    Hi everyone,

    I bought a digivox t starter kit with mmds aerial from bubble supplies and cant get it to pick up any channels at all. Im in the Tralee area.

    The system information sw - V03-1.1000t and the date on it is the 7 aug 2009. Is this version not the right one, does it need to be up dated or something. I got a cable to link it up to the computer but its not usb cant be used on my laptop, and i dont got PC. my friend has digivox, if i hooked it up to his would it update itself and then work. I dunno im pulling at straws, please help me

    check your antenna power is set to on (thats your aeriel)and of course you will need the latest firmware(you will need a computer capable of putting the firmware in your box').you will need a loader(to put the firmware in to your box)as far as i know the loader is called downloader1o.exe, the last firmware i used was digivox_ter_v3310.bin(but i would think there is a newer version than that)click on the link in my signature area, click on digivoxt and see what firmware is there for it. but it looks as tho mmds wont last much longer(but if you get between 3 and 5 months well your box and aeriel will have paid for it self)so best of luck mate.

    i did the whole downloader 10 thing with the proper bin file , have the digibox linked to my laptop via an rs232 cable and usb serial adapter, i downloaded downloader 10 and the download to flash the box, selected com 3 and the file and pressed download, the progress bar comes up but does not fill up and after a while it just says update fail to flash, someone else on a different site had the exact same problem.

    As stated earlier the last open system Chorus MMDS is now closing. New cards are in the post. So sorry to say your experiment will not yield return. Time to look for an laternative or buy a subscription

    jacx if you got the new aerial with rings i had no joy either and the nag 3 thing dont worry if it happens because we all need new boxes as rte(still analog) is still analog and we cant have the same channels as cable and the earliest change over is 2012 and i have a buddy in ch@@@s and thats no shit quote me if u want next yr.........
