It's been five minutes now. Fucking #Freesat box of shit 😠

Seems it has decided that it no longer wants to talk to the LNB. Plugged the co-ax into the satellite input on the TV. Perfect picture straight away.

Never buy the official #Freesat box. It's been a pain in the arse from new one way or another. Sadly the only competition they had in the UK, Humax, has left the market. Which I suppose is how they get away with selling a crap product for premium money.

@snaprails just get a GTmedia V7X / V8 reciever...

@kkarhan That doesn’t appear to do anything much more than the decoder built into my tv. Given how little live tv I watch I think I’ll stick with that.

Oh and Humax are still in the uk but only seem to do Freeview boxes now.

@snaprails okay, that makes sense.

Thought you'd also want something for Sky and other PayTV as an option.

@kkarhan Don't need Sky or any other pay TV apart from my Apple TV sub.
But I'll bear those devices in mind if that changes 🙂
