    Hi,

    Wondering can anyone help me, have been all over this site trying everything with no result

    Gota Starview 4 USB with the new firmware uploaded on Cork Ch**us cable, had a sig strenght of 65 so added an slx booster and it is now on 98.

    I have tried scanning on ch**us cork and ch**us with nothing found, when it does scan certain frequencies give a green bar flash for a second but nothing coming through, brought the box to a mates and he can get everything.

    Any help appreciated

    cheers....

    Sound like a signal issue, when you say it wont work at home but it does in your mates... do you have a live cable feed or is it MMDS and what is your mates???

    Both cable different areas though not sure does that matter, read the sig from the sagem box that was installed it is at 98 now with perfect quality, using the same leads to connect the starview 4

    As cactikid said looks like you are on MMDS, wonder where he heard that :). Look under the subbed Sagem box, does it say ITD on the label?

    The Box T is been discontinued by the main distributors by the looks of things. The TX can be bought anywhere try fleabay. Where did you get the SV4 they may do an exchange. If you let me know I will tell you.

    "do you have a live cable feed or is it MMDS and what is your mates???

    you were asked that question earlier last night Doh!!! LOL

    "Shit yeah its says ITD60 CHORUS, christ i tought i was on cable... "

    As cactikid said looks like you are on MMDS,

    If we had known the above earlier perhaps you could have been sorted earlier!!!
