Anyone know what satellite I need to add to gain access to these?? Had them on my old sky box, I presume its just a matter of going through the other satellites but figured you guys might know which satellite specifically Cheers

So thanks to all who replied to my query, and offered help etc...

CUCINA wrote: » Well, it was just simple errors on my part. I think where I first went wrong was to connect the 150 the same way as the Grundig, when all I had to do was to remove the coax lead from the TV and put it into the coax (aerial) connection at the back of the 150. Also,I fiddled about with the diplexer when I should have just left it. I know, I should really be arrested by the techie police force for incompetance! Anyway, just using the one remote for all stations now. WARNING: I will be back with more queries down the line! WARNING:I will be back with more queries down the line!!

Hi, Just checking here, do u have a sat dish? And what do u mean 'FTA Aerial'? Also, I could be wrong, but I dont think you need a saorview box inbetween ur Ariva and TV Can u post a pic of ur set-up as Im finding it a little hard to understand from what you have written above and ill try to help u more. Regards Iba

When I say FTA aerial I mean a cable that comes in from the wall (market SAT on the socket) that was initially going to the FTA box we have but Ive plugged it out of FTA box and plugged into Ferguson Ariva 150 box now instead. I've 5 leads coming out of the back of the Ariva box.... 1. main power lead 2. scart lead to tv 3. a lead coming from the aerial port on the wall marked 'SAT', this lead goes to Ariva box via 'Loop Out' port 4. another lead coming from the aerial port next to the SAT one, this one is marked 'UHF/FM' on the port on wall, and this one is going into the 'Ant In' on the box 5. Theres another lead plugged in from 'Aerial In' on FTA box to 'Loop Out' on Ariva. Just a basic black lead. All im working off is two leads as mentioned coming in through wall, Ariva box (sorry, should said that instead of Saorview?), and tv. Sorry cant upload any pics, appreciate your help on this though, thanks.
Sorry Im still finding this a little hard to picture. You said you have a sat dish, do you also have an outside antenna (aerial on the roof)? If u have both a sat dish and an outside aerial; just plug the cable from ur sat dish into the sat-in socket on the back of the ariva and the aerial cable into the aerial-in socket So u should only have two cables going into ur Ariva, the sat feed and ur Terrestial feed and then ur Scart connection to ur TV. Try this and tell me what happens Regards
GKiraly wrote: » ya we have an aerial on the roof. So now theres just the two cables and the Scart going into the Ariva. But when I press guide button on remote all im getting is the Irish channels. Im assuming that Im not picking up the FTA channels correctly in some section of the Menu.... Much appreciation!
