      Did mine on Tuesday as instructed. Digi Recording Box, no probs, but the TV has gone to BBC Wales, WTF. I'm not interested in Sheep, Choirs, and all there sh*te news.  :mad: Same Ariel, really pissed off with it, BBC 1 & 2 are on channels 800, and 801. and the Welsh ones are 1 and 2. Stupid thing is that the Commercial channels have stayed English...

      Any one else got this problem. Now have to keep retuning hoping that WinterHills signal will be stronger than the Welsh one!!

      Yep, thats fine. Have a look though ALL the channels, as ITV2+1 is just called ITV on mine, it may be lurking.

      This is a right cock up

      1 TV to share. That's going to be F***ing great when I want the Tuesday night footy on and my mum wants Holby City isn't it!

      Just flick through the channels and change the over from Wales to your region,eg if BBC wales is on 1 and BBC N/W is on 21 just reverse the programme log and save,so on and so on.

      Sorry I can change the Channel order but not the Channel numbers.


      I've seen Aussie TV and Quality does not spring to mind unless you like Adverts every 10 mins  :f_whistle:

      Just called Tosiba Help Line...

      Spoke to Justin, nice guy. Got some VERY Techinal advice which may be of help.

      First of all, he said the Welsh Transmitter appaers to be the strongest one in the WORLD!!!

      Here is the Hard Bit, Re-tune your TV, when it has done 40% remove the areial, if this does not work, then re-tune the TV without the ariel and then put it in when 40% is left. A bit hit and miss but.....

      ITS BLOODY WORKED!

      It seems the English ones are at the End of the re-tune, so start off with the arial OUT and put it back at about 50%.

      Funny thing is, it's hardly Aussie shows that are on these new channels.

      I agree, however the Poms seem to eat our garbage up and make washed up stars on this land, superstars on the Motherland.

      Crouchy I got about a dozen extra channels on the Fox mate must say none of them are too impressive. I was excited about the Eurosport one but they always show sh*te like weightlifting, european handball and the greek basketball league??

      What about on your digital set top box? They're different channels to the Fox ones.
