New saorview box no rte channels

TECH85

Hi all

So i bought a new saorview box from DID electrical yesterday.
Got it all wired up and have loads of channels like bbc etc .. but i have no rte , rte2 or 3 etc.
It says on the box i should have the above channels..
The make is 4life combo hd digital terrestrial and satellite combo set top box .

Any ideas or solutions ?
Many thanks

Sounds like you have the satellite cable connected but no terrestrial aerial.

Dont want to state the obvious but you have got the aerial connected too.

Were you using that to get RTE before you got the new box?

You can also plug it directly into the TV and tune in the terrestrial channels if you are getting a good enough signal.

Must be picking up satellite signals. Aerial reception of bbc in Galway ?

Are you tuning correctly usually a separate search for terrestrial channels and sat channels?

Hey all , thanks for your replys.
I managed to get them tuned in , i now have rte etc and alot of other freeview channels.
Many thanks for your help
