    Thanks for all the advice everyone, will update again once I've had a chance to do the above.
    No it wont void the warranty as this is how there meant to be flashed. Any retailer who says otherwise is full of crap.

    Well in that case I stand corrected. My initial point still stands however and is Indeed correct in that signal quality is more important than signal strength.

    Go into setup/service searching/satfinder and check if FEC is on auto if it is youll have to change this to the correct FEC (ie 2/3) for whatever transponders are on auto.

    Can't get the box to flash with the latest image, seem to remember having to do a bootloader thing on my dad's before we could Vix on his, can't seem to find a bootloader file anywhere tho. Have followed all the other instructions tho and have flashed his box numerous times, anyone got a link where I can get a loader?

    Got Vix installed last night, let it run the auto search for channels but still nothing so it must be my dish. Hope to get someone out within the week to sort it. Thanks again for the advice everyone.
