The black cable is an irrelevant power cord.1. This isn't in the predefined transponder list. When I scan it manually, I don't get anything.2. Also not in the predefined list, but yes, I get Russia today, France 24 in three languages . . . 11 channels total.3. This isn't in the predefined transponder list. When I scan it manually, I don't get anything.So the answer to one question is YES, and for two others it's NO. Not sure where that leaves us. Especially since . . .None whatsoever (I reset it, would you believe, to get the subtitle and audio settings back to normal after a guest had messed them up). This is why I really think this is a receiver settings thing—it would be really a big coincidence if the cable/satellite/etc went wrong at the precise moment that I reset the tuner, having had no problems at all before with any of that stuff. It is possible of course that there is something weird about the hardware and that a previous tenant/engineer managed to find a settings workaround that I lost when resetting.I believe so. The landlord, who I have contacted, says his satellite guy has "disappeared" and he is searching for a new one. I suspect this is not high on his list of priorities.I hadn't. I did this now. It now seems that the answer to all the questions is no, i.e. I no longer get RT etc on 12388 Vert.Folks, I don't know how much patience you have, but . . . I think I might just have to learn to live without the BBC for the remainder of my time in this apartment, or at least till the landlord finds a new satellite installer!</blockquote>[/QUOTE]
