NAGRA 3 Rollout In Ireland - Channels Affected So Far

thanks,my friends box blew up last night he got a power surge from the ESB because went off for a couple of mins so he was asking me what box should he buy any ideas lads

 

kryptview at the present time would be a good idea

 

really,do i want all channels back? lol

 

qvc gone here

 

devastated by the loss of qvc lol

 

Lol was an obvious joke.

Off to a real forum.........

 

Reasonable I suppose, and a very good idea, but the joke was not obvious, anyway hope you get the courtesy and respect that is on offer here, goodbye.

 

For those who care, QVC was gone here as well. Got updating code message and otherwise blank screen. Different to dropped channels message of "insert card". Did a powerscan on Eurovox and it came back as new entry on main list. Had to re-enter it in Favourites as old link didnt work. N*L seem to be messing about in more ways than one.

 

comments like ciskz are designed for one purpose only and thats too close threads like code beggars in the past,alot of good threads were closed down so best to ignore poor fools like them and have a read about fixes before asking, if its available youll all know about it before you even come on to AD no doubt

 

Hi guys,
Looks like a lot of threads about on the losing channels problem. I am on a box Super 8.02 and have lost the channels also. Hopefully we get some fix in the coming weeks.

Thanks for all the efforts lads, ur a great help
Cheers

tell ya what pal,
seeing as your so concerned about it,
why dont ya ring ntl or chorus or whoever your with, and explain to them that you have an illegal receiver and your concerned about when it is going to stop working.Ask them to tell you exactly what their plans are, as they might affect your viewing via your illegal box.they'll probably be right around to sort you out !!

FFS, the forum is here to help people sort out problems with boxes that have ALREADY stopped working, or boxes that people have bought and know nothing about.
Its NOT, as far as I am aware anyway, a crystal ball enabling it to forsee all the plans of the service providers.
So to you and all the people in Cork (that you seem to want to represent)call your provider and they'll sort ya !

y'all have a nice day now

PS, how was your post helpful to others BTW ???
your box still works and you posted twice demanding to know when it would stop working

!

 

thanks to all for help
have visited this site often and always learnt something new.so hopefully soon ill learn how to get my lovely setanta sports back,
god i miss it so much,but cant afford to suscribe.once again thanks in advance lads.keep on posting

 

thers a war breaking out on this thread lol

 

there really is a war and its not really about anything either

 

Nagra3 is so powerful, not only does it affect the boxes but, also peoples temper

Calm down people

 

its definately affecting some people but i dont see what the problem in just waiting to see what happens is. whatever happens we can all get through once we stick together

 

May I remind some of you guys that the boxes are not, in and of themselves, illegal. You may elect to scan for free-to-air channels only! Should you choose to use the available technology for unlawful purposes, that is very much a personal choice.

 

they are illegal to connect them boxes to any cable feed as we do not have a free to air system in Ireland please read below
