Hi Graham, I have 999 on the program guide but the channel 999 is "not receiving a signal"
I am receiving Freesat through the Humax box which has no tuning (as the Television has but is not being used)
In settings on the Humax the postcode is logged under "General Information".
These channels work These don't work
949,952,953, 957,958, 950,951,954,955,956,959
961,962,963, 964,967, 969 960,965,966,968,973
971,972,975, 977,978, 979 974,976,981,999
From your list my working channels are mostly V except 949
I don't get the 10000 H or V listed on EPG or Info
I do have access to the dish and LNB
Your response is appreciated, thank you.
I would say the lnb is dodgy and or you have water in the coax cabling. . Note without the transponder carrying the 999 Data stream - Freesat info you cannot setup the box.
This transponder (freesat home transponder), has the postcode translation data to set up your local channels.
When you enter a postcode a copy of this data is temporarily copied to your box.
This hides ITV regions so that you get the correct regional ads.
Reason why I posted the channel list is that whatever your postcode all of these should be present on a freesat device.
Your dish is too old to properly mount a new MK4 lnb.
If I were you I would first check carefully at the lnb end for any sign of water ingress and corrosion. If there is evidence of this replace the cables with Webro WF100 cable. Use lnb boots and silicon grease to ensure water does not get in again.
Replace the dish with a MK4 Sky dish and quad lnb. Google how to fit screw on f Connectors,
Either this one

or for improved bad weather performance
If it was a Foxsat-HDR with the custom firmware you can unhide these so they all appear in your epg.
