Found 270 Channels but still nothing onscreen

[MacNasty]

Hi

I've got a box that has no channels, another 4 boxes work fine on the same setup, firstly it was only finding 50 transpoders and no channels, I did a bruteforce scan and found almost over 300 transponders and just under 300 channels.

Still nothing onscreen but I can get all the menus etc.

Any help appreciated

Thanks

Do you get the freebie channels like BBC1 ?.

Nope, I get waiting for time and error no channel

What readings you getting if you go red blue (sportster image).
My Daughters box had this waiting for time, I changed the image to boxcracker and it now works fine, sportster is good but wants the box to be perfect where as boxcracker is a bit more forgiving with weaker tuners.

It is unusual to get no channels at all.

What would have been the answer if I was only getting terrestial channels, I know someone who has that problem

Evocam not installed or no keys.

Used sportster Pro and did a Bruteforce, Pro allows you to choose which can to have on switched on both available put in my services and bouquette and everything is working.
