I set up everything this weekend, but no luck. I got a strong signal from the sat finder I have but the digibox kept saying "no signal being received". I bought this digi box second hand in England and it comes with a card so could it be anything to do with this old card? I tried with the card in and out and nothing. Is it possible I might need to get a free card or a new one. I thought that since the bbc now is free a card would make no difference. Or could it be that the digibox is faulty?.
Digibox is grundig 310/2 bought on e-bay.
In order to help you set up there is a free program on
