    my octagon sf8 wont tune in saorsat at 9east or mutv on 10east??????

    This is a new one on me and I have had lots of boxes. I have the sf8 with openatv image but when I try to add some channels manually eg 10east and a particular sat on 9east it fails. It says o channels found. Now I have 2 other boxes and they work flawlessly. the channel that wont tune in is mutv 10east, on 11547 1614. Then I have a dish pointing at 9east with the correct lnb for saorsat and again the sf8 finds nothing. i even used the sat.xml from a working uno and still nothing.

    iS THIS JUST A DUFF TUNER OR BOX?

    Or is there another way of tuning that I am not aware of?

    If box is faulty can I have a refund? Its brand new.

    So you're using Biss keys and don't even have a valid subscription??

    Yet you blame the receiver when it's most likely a softcam issue.

    The settings you gave are very incomplete. But using the values from lyngsat.com I noticed that none of my boxes is able to receive that service.

    Help asked via PM will be ignored.
    The forum is there for help and all will benefit from your questions.
    NO CARD SHARING TALK WILL BE TOLERATED, LAN OR WAN, IN OPEN FORUM OR PM !

    English is not my native tongue.
    I apologise for all my grammar, spelling and idiom errors.
