I have just bought a freeview box off trade-me but can't get any signal when I set it all up . It is pluged into an areial that is linked to a sky dish via a splitter as other house mates have sky . I dont want to play arround with the dish is there anything else I can do like with the settings on the box? Thanks Mike |

| 888401 | 2010-05-26 12:09:00 | Presume it is the Freeview satellite box you bought and not the terrestrial version? | decibel (11645) | ||
| 888402 | 2010-05-26 20:25:00 | Im not sure does it make a difference? | mogley123 (15790) | ||
| 888403 | 2010-05-26 20:57:00 | Yes. if I spoke to you in Greek/Korean/German/Spanish would you understand? DVB-S (Freeview) and DVB-T (Freeview|HD) are not the same, and take different aerials, different hardware, different video resolutions. |

| 888406 | 2010-05-27 00:07:00 | What make and model is the tuner. Post a link to the Trademe site you got it from. I have a Freeview terrestrial tuner which works off a UHF aerial. It also receives programes in HD format when transmitted which Satellite Freeview won't. :) |

| 888407 | 2010-05-27 06:05:00 | Why is everyone assuming he has a DVB-T box? If it's a DVB-S box, then it's probably just the LNB settings. |
