TVN activation time

Got a pay as you go card for TVN, which I stuck into the box, tuned to TVP (Stupidly), and then activated the card online. Left the card in the box since 7 last night until 10 this morning until I realised that it needed to be on TVN instead. Have I missed the activation signal, or does it continue to repeat for a period of time?

No idea but common sense would tell you the switch to TVN and leave the card in the receiver. If it gets to around 4pm and no joy I would call whomever you bought the card from and ask to send the signal again otherwise you could be waiting as long as monday. Remember Europe is an hour ahead so call before they close.

Yes use one of the TVN channels for the activation, should activate in around 30 minutes. What receiver you using it in?

Using it in a Technomate 5400 which has the conex system the card requires.

Thanks again snaps. The card still hasn't activated, and we've confirmed with TVN that the activation signal has been transmitting since yesterday. Will do a scan again of the satellites, and hope for the best.
