    Hi

    I went through the Channel FTA stickie already and my question still wasnt answered so thats why i have opened a new thread, hope thats ok.

    Quick question, i have an old pace sky box, using as FTA at the moment. I get all the BBCs and ITVs, however, i dont get channel 4 or channel 5( i know this needs a card, but i am hoping to get one soon)

    Do you need to store channel 4 under other channels after manually searching for it, or should it be part of the epg at channel 135??

    I have 10.714H, 22000 and 5/6 for channel 4, but what is it for channel 5??

    Thanks

    You need to add it to Other Channels. The one on the EPG is a DIFFERNT C4 to the Free one and still needs a FTV card.


    Five is FTV card/UK subscription only, so it won't work.

    You will only see it on channel 104 if a UK subscription or FTV card is in the box
