| 861505 | 2010-02-25 04:00:00 | Hi folks. Still tinkering with Freeview. Friend's wife tells my wife that they too have Freeview and that it can receive a programme of classical music on SBS. My Freeview does not appear to drag in anything like SBS, which Google tells me is an Australian identity. Anyone have any knowledge of SBS on our Freeview and how to tune in to it? As always, any help appreciated. |

| 861507 | 2010-02-25 04:35:00 | Thanksa for the response Nigel. The unit is a Satlink 2700. I believe that it uses the Sky dish left behind by previous owners of the house. | Scouse (83) | ||
| 861508 | 2010-02-25 04:40:00 | You need to add the SBS transponder and scan for channels: Freq: 12646MHz Pol: Vertical SR: 12600 |

| 861511 | 2010-02-25 09:18:00 | Also if you also run sky you may not be able to get any of the Australian channels as the polarity is set from the sky box and the Aussie channels are the wrong polarity. | psycik (12851) | ||
