767354 2009-08-16 22:11:00 Ch 10 here. BTW I got an email from someone called Keith about it. Is that someone from here, as I don't know any Keiths.
:)

Is that terrestrial or satellite? I did a scan this morning (terrestrial) and couldn't find Prime. There are four channels named Service 1200, Service 1201, Service 1202, and Service 1203.

767358 2009-08-16 23:01:00 Working great here via satellite.

You can all thank me for this too by the way :)
I knew it would happen as soon as I paid Sky $149 for a Prime only install :mad:
I have been in contact with Sky about this and am waiting for someone from the customer care team to call me back in regards to getting a refund.

767359 2009-08-16 23:21:00 I searched new services on my Topfield box and got Freeview. I also found Channel Ten Australia Cairns feed which I'd never picked up before... sweet! Standing_Amazed (7841)

Where do you live? I'll be trying it here in Whakatane (Te Aroha transmitter) after work.

767362 2009-08-17 17:52:00 yay no more grainy analogue prime *twitches*
now if my TVPC was a bit more high spec (at the mo its a bit lo-fi; 1.1Ghz 512M ram win 2k pro) and i could find a terrestrial freeveiw TV card (maybe a USB one) i might do away with the analogue card (or at least leave it in for the FM tuner and composite/S-video)
sky might get a bit gutted with all the "prime only" box refunds
