    Hi I have recently moved to Cornwall from Kent. I purchased the FOXSAT-HDR set some time ago and all worked fine in Kent. I am now trying to connect my set in my new home. The previous owner had SKY and there is a dish on the roof. I have connected the two cables satellite cables to LNB1 & LNB2 and i have connected the HDMI cable. I had a message no connection. I have tried a freest Tune. after 30 mins and the strength & quality bars going on / off and reaching 85 – 100 i get the message ‘Failed to detect’ check your cables. I have reconnected the cables and switched it off and tried again but with the same outcome.

    Not sure why it does not tune?

    I have searched the forum but could not find anything

    Any ideas?

    Kind regards Alan

    Martin has pointed you at a good link.

    There are two possabilities:

    – You have a wideband rather than a universal LNB

    – The LNB cannot detect the horizontally polarised freesat home transponder. This is the sole test it performs on a reset.

    Assuming the previous owners setup was working a change to a universal LNB should solve the problem.

    Thanks for the replies. Yes i think the LNB will solve the issue. Thanks for the link
