    I TRIED THE MANUAL SCAN SETTINGS AS THIS:

    FREQ = 315.000 AND 491.000
    SYMBOL = 6952ksps
    CONSTELATION = 64QAM
    Network Scan = disable

    RESULT = "0 programs found"

    I had Sk sports 1 and 3 on Friday night. Saturday Morning they had disappeared.
    Then Sunday morning after another fresh install and scan they came back so watched the Chelsea game, then as soon as they went to old trafford for United game the signal started breaking badly, it was unwatchable, so did another install and re-scan and the channels had disappeared again. All very frustrating...

    My mate has a eurovox and had no problem?!

    I have heard they are changing the frequencies?

    I SCAN FOR CHANNELS ON EXC&W AND LIVE IN MANCHESTER.
    ON AUTOMATIC SCAN I HAVE FOUND 235 CHANNELS.

    ANY HELP ON THIS WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED GUYS, I BOUGHT THE BOX FOR THE FOOTY AND HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS UNTIL THE FOOTY SEASON STARTED????! AAArrgh!!

    Thanks again

    Im not sure about the Uk but you could try this , unfortunally you will lose the order you have your channels saved .

    Frequency change fix
    1 Menu
    2 Factory settings
    3 type in code ( 0000)
    4 press ok. this will delete channels.
    5 Installation
    6 Change provider (Eg N*L etc)to which ever one used in your area.
    7 autoscan ( when it says *** channels found , exit back out all the way until u are back at the scrambled/no signal 'tv' screen)
    8 Hit menu again
    9 go into parental control
    10 press info on remote and type in 2004
    11 new screen appears , change EMU to ON
    Then exit back out all the way until u are back at the scrambled/no signal 'tv' screen and hey presto your sorted !

    Yeah that is just a clean install, which i have done at least 20 times since last friday. I get sk sport 2 and Xtra. But no sk sport 1 and 3!

    ...any other ideas

    Nothing else I can think of other than see if its listed as TV *** (*** denotes numbers)

    Ot maybe there is a local problem in your area with those channels
