[QUOTE="Mark Falsebeard, post: 613276, member: 284042"] I don't recall his name being Mr. silly, no :p. Is there a notorious installer called [b]silly[/b]man then? Like I said previously, I'm keeping out of making judgements on his abilities as my Dad did agree to what was done. Suffice to say my Dad doesn't want him back. He can get BBC1SOUTH on CH984 if I recall correctly, the channel 101 in his card doesn't work for him. ITV1 is really bad for him now (ITV Meridian E) whereas it was fine before. My Dad isn't very tech savvy and I set up a Tivo for him with only the channels he can receive being visible. I'm not sure if you're familiar with a Tivo but you don't typically use a Sky Remote, the Tivo operated the Sky Digibox via IR wand. A local friend talked him through how to try other ITV regions using the Sky remote with no luck. His friend told him he thought the Tivo was causing the problem but I am 100% sure is not the case. A Tivo merely records what the digibox is seeing via Scart output, it can't influence the signal at all. We have removed the Tivo from the setup to demonstrate to my Dad that the problem lied elsewhere. We need someone with the right kit who REALLY knows their stuff, Thanks, Mark. [/QUOTE]
