    Hi

    Got an Amiko box installed to ensure I keep the Uk channels when SD is switched up, all installed, working fine and have all the channels i need with the exception of BBC2 Scotland, which i had on my old SD box. I watched BBC 2 Scotland regularly, and also the BBC red button channel which was handy on a Saturday afternoon for keeping up with the BBC football scores.

    Can i get BBC2 Scotland/BBC Red button now ? Is there an idiots guide to adding it to my Amiko channel list ? I would prefer not to have to mess about/do a full rescan in case i make a balls of everything and also end up having to delete hundreds of rubbish channels.

    Thanks for any help or advice, i am clueless !

    The settings are :-

    10788 V 23000 3/4 DVB-S2 8PSK

    BBC Red Button HD

    BBC Scotland HD

    11024 H 23000 3/4 DVB-S2 8PSK

    BBC One Scotland HD

    Although there is the general BBC TWO, BBC TWO NI and BBC TWO Wales, I cant find any reference to BBC Two Scotland. It's programming seems to be incorporated into BBC Scotland.

    Please tell us what model Amiko box you have to help you better.

    Have a look at this site which includes howto videos. https://www.freetv.ie/amiko-mini-combo/

    In particular half way down the page "How to Manually Tune in a Satellite Channel"


    According to this, BBC Two Scotland is now part of BBC Scotland https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBC_Two_Scotland
