My Dad's old 6300 wont scan for channels. I've done a full system reset and a disk reformat. I''ve even done a full reset with the disk unplugged(!!).
I've even plugged the aeriel cable into RFin 2 instead of RFin 1 but still can't get it to find any channels.
It goes through the motions (2 or 3 mins) but gets nowhere.
The signal is fine as the same aeriel cable will happily service my TV.

Any suggestions?

Rgds,

Anything else that it plugs into

You could always try having a look at the users manual to see if you have the box set up correctly:

Cheers, but we are way beyond set up issues. The box has just stopped tuning into channels and no amount of persuasion has moved it forward.

It's not the old power-supply capacitor-problem is it?, like many others, I've had to replace mine when funny things started happening to the box., and this did the trick.
