Hi, I am having issues picking up channels on Satellite Astra 28.2E with my VU+ Solo 2, especially FTA ones. No issues when a sky q box is connected, all the channels are there. Any suggestions? Thanks
What LNB is fitted? WHat type of dish?
Gigablue Quad 4K & UE 4K
.........FBC Tuners:
------------------> GT-Sat unicable LNB to 1.5M dish(28.2E)
------------------> Gigablue unicable LNB to 80 cm dish(19.2E)
.......................> FBC & DVB-S2X into 90cm dish (27.5W) Opticum robust Unicable LNB
AX HD61, Edision Osmio 4K+, Zgemma H9Combo, Octagon SF8008 , gbtrio4k, h9se using unicable ports
Zgemma H9 C/S into Giga4K
Twin LNB, Sky Dish.
Sky Q lnb's don't work with enigma boxes. You need a hybrid lnb.
Octagon SF8008 4K, VU+Duo 2..
Edision OS MINI,
You are aware that sky Q uses a wideband lnb that is not compatible with a fta receiver
Some of the lnb's can have a legacy output for fta but I think you have to request this on installation
If you have a twin lnb it may have 1 wideband out and 1 legacy ( old type ) output
are you sure your connecting your solo2 to the legacy out

Is it quite straight forward to replace myself?
Have swapped the cables around and still an issue, no FTA channels.
As already been stated previously. If you have hadSky Q installed you will have had the new LNB installed and thus your e2 won't be able to pickup anything.Originally Posted by zebby721

Can anyone recommend a LNB for e2? Are there ones available which will work for both sky Q and E2? Thanks
Just search Sky Q LNB on **ay & you will see the LNB's that are for both Sky Q (Wideband) & Legacy for Freesat/FTA etc.
