    Hi I have been using an Alba B660 box to get saorview channels on telly in the Kitchen.
    Up until a number of days ago I could get all the channels, But now all I have is channels 1 - RTE1 6 - UTV Ireland 7 RTE Junior 11 - RTE One +1

    I have tried automatic rescans and first time installation but still no joy.
    Anyone using the same box had the same problem and managed to fix it.
    Cheers

    Those channels are carried on the same frequency, the others are carried on a different frequency. Most likely an insufficient signal issue related to the aerial or cabling. What aerial setup are you using?

    Fixed it thanks.
    I use an indoor aerial from the attic with a splitter from it for two cables built into the wall between the sitting room and kitchen with a cable connection point back to back for both rooms.
    Anyway after reading your post I checked the tv in sitting room which automatically receives saorview and this tv was receiving all the channels and then when I checked the cabling in the kitchen where the alba box is used, I then noticed that the cable from the aerial was loose where it connects to the video box which then has a cable from it to the alba box.
    Pushed it in all the way and did a rescan and presto all the channels are back.
    Thanks for your help
