<p>Hello world!</p>
<p>I am hoping there is more installers on here to help with a stupid problem..</p>
<p>I have a commercial client that runs 6x sky boxes and 6 x freeview boxes (ST7070 from dish-tv)these boxes all run on a bank of RF modulators (dish tv rack mount) </p>
<p>the issue comes in that the dish tv boxes just don't last, contacting freeview about commercial installations. Got given three phone numbers for suppliers and 2 of those numbers didn't exist any more and the third didn't…</p>

<p>the issue comes in that the dish tv boxes just don't last, contacting freeview about commercial installations. Got given three phone numbers for suppliers and 2 of those numbers didn't exist any more and the third didn't care to even discus supplying parts.</p>
<p>Recording is not a requirement, and fitting a freeview box into every room is not a option as well.</p>
<p>what we are looking for is either a freeview box that can output more than one channel at a time or a commercial rated box that can actually handle running in a data cabinet for long periods of time.</p>
<p></p>
<p>(Surely some one will ask. yes all this gear is running on good quality surge arrestors and has a decent power supply. cabinet is also well ventilated.) </p>
<p></p>

<p>Hi, I bought a place up north (Kerikeri) a couple of years ago and should have done a bit of research before packing up our stuff from Hawkes Bay and finding there are no terrestrial transmitters in the Bay of Islands.</p>
<p>Consequently I have a hardly used Panasonic DMR-XW440 which has been sitting in its box for a while. I'm heading down to the Bay in April and wonder if anybody would be interested in a swap for a satellite DVD recorder, it doesn't have to be flash, just as long as it…</p>

<p>Consequently I have a hardly used Panasonic DMR-XW440 which has been sitting in its box for a while. I'm heading down to the Bay in April and wonder if anybody would be interested in a swap for a satellite DVD recorder, it doesn't have to be flash, just as long as it works. The unit I have has a spare remote and is boxed in very good condition.</p>
<p>Failing that does anybody know if it's possible to swap the UHF tuner for a satellite model ?.</p>

<p>Hi, Does anyone have any experience/comments/suggestions on adding a USB SSD to record Freeview off a Smart TV? TV is a Panasonic TH-65HX950Z and firmware on it is up to date (4.069). SSD is 4TB and does NOT have any means to power it off the mains (TV says it can handle 160GB to 6TB). TIA.</p>

<p>Hi, I was having troubles with remote so unplugged box set and managed to fix remote. But now when I plug set box in and power on, the green light wont appear, only red. Could it be locked? Because theres no actual on/off button other than unplugging I dont know how to turn the box on. I've also tried via remote but wont work. Any advice greatly received :-)</p>

<p>We have a splitter from our rusty old dish - reception is okay on one TV, but recently it stopped working on the TV which is on a 20meter coax cable.</p>
<p>Does this setup of the splitter look correct?<br></br><br></br>Would a satellite dish suddenly drop its power?<br></br>Ive tried swapping cables etc, and problem remains on the distant TV</p>
<p>I replaced the LNB a couple of years ago.</p>
<p>Any ideas to solve this problem?…</p>

<p>Greetings</p>
<p></p>
<p>We changed our network password and now Freeview will not initiate on our TV via VU TV.</p>
<p>Netflix and Youtube are still working perfectly. However, Freeview is just a blank screen.</p>
<p>Rebooting TV and Vu TV makes no difference.</p>
<p>Any suggestions gratefully received.</p>
