Sadly, I am unable to offer this personal service at the moment.

Until I can restore this service, please can you leave any questions you have on an appropriate page, where they will be answered as soon as possible, or below, if you can't figure out where to ask.

Robert As long as your set top box is a satellite (Freesat or free to air sat) receiver and there are no trees blocking the dish then "yes". If its a terrestrial (Freeview) receiver then "no"

David Young: If you are meaning the disconnecting the box from the mains then reconnecting it again whilst holding in the back up button "on the box" until the three leds come on, then it can take up to 30 minutes.

However as far as channels are concerned, every time a box is powered up it automatically udates the channels list by the fact that it doesnt store them in the first place when unpowered.

DY I had a 2/h skybox that said it needed an upgrade - which never ended. Sky people said it was faulty.

We have a Humax 250g PVR which has worked well until recently. It seems to either miss the first few minutes or the last few minutes of a programme on some stations when set to auto record. There does not appear to be a software update to download. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this please?

James- The equipment you are using to receive ch47 signal needs to be fitted with a DVBT-2 tuner where as the rest of the signals will be the standard DVBT

Hello. My father-in-law gave me his old Sky box and card that I've been using to watch the 'free-to-air' channels (without a problem). As a BT Broadband customer I've been trying to sort out getting the free BT Sports channels but I get as far as a message saying that the Sky box/card is 'not registered to this address'. I don't want a Sky subscription. Anyone any ideas what I could/should do? Cheers.
