[QUOTE="Rvator, post: 891740, member: 402382"] Hello again Helen. Contrary to your issue our system was finding satellites when selecting 402 on the MagicSat 2002a control box with whatever frequency that was entered into the research criteria but only non UK stations were scanned in by the digital receiver but that as I said was resolved by using the frequencies provided by Anologuesat. I am no longer up on our narrowboat however I will endeavour to help you with some troubleshooting stuff. From your image the message of 'no satellite found' and that you say 'it won't find anything now' the first question that I would ask is can you confirm that the line input coaxial cable from the LNB brining the signal in from the dish is connected to the back of the control box and to the LNB on the dish? The conductor in the cable could be broken (especially when it has been twisted or bent sharply) or you could have a bad connection either end. Can I ask you to confirm the type of installation, is it free standing in a caravan or installed in a motor home? At what point did you notice your initial issue that you mentioned in your original message post? Has the system been functioning correctly with whatever frequency criteria you had entered in the control box and the started giving the same symptoms as ours of locking onto what was supposed to be Astra2 28.2 e but only scanning non UK channels?
