I have started using a Humax PVR for caravanning in place of a Sky receiver.
When setting up a 60cm dish at any new (U.K.) location with a sat meter I can find Astra 28 without problem (10 years practice with the Sky box) but the Humax does not show any signal strength or quality readings at all. If I do a search it cannot find a signal and it shows my postcode as "invalid". Doing a manual search will then find programmes after which the SS and SQ read as normal, 100% on both.
Anyone any idea what I am doing wrong? With a Sky receiver previously set up, connecting to the dish, aligning on Astra 28 produces SS and SQ readings and all the channels. Why doesn't this happen with the Humax?
