LO = Local oscillator, basicially its part of the LNB function to down convert the high frequency satellite broadcast to a lower . frequency that can be carried by the coax cable . Its worth checking as Byte as pointed out.

Hey Tony,

so there's a 120 thread, a 150 thread, and now I just might add a 250 specific thread. Just to P1ss you off a wee bit, and take up more of your time.......

My 250 left Germany at 7.00am today according to UPS tracker. I'll get a write up done once its unboxed. Interested to see if the 150/250 firmwares are cross transferrable, not that I'm keen on this area following the spate of incorrect updates from members on the 120 variant, added to the fact that the updates added little apart from the lipsync fix early on.

/back on "120" topic

Look under "antenna setup"
You should see something like "LNB Freq"

The correct settings are" Universal 9.750 / 10.600 "

In some cases it seems this is wrongly set to 10.700

See page 18 of the manual.

Hi,

Anybody got a clue why:

On my Humax STB I can pull in a few hundred channels from Badr 4 (26 degrees) but on my Ariva 120, I can only pull in 12 channels?

Regards

Did you try a blind scan rather than relying on the supplied channel list.

Does anybody know any other universal remote codes for the 120?

I have a one for all URC-7130 remote and none of the codes in the manual or online are working for me

Sorry if covered earlier - but I am looking to get Football subscription card for next season and with my set up looks like a choice between Al Jazerra or Cyfra+ on 13E.

Can anyone confirm if these subcription cards will clear on the Ariva 120 ?
