    Hi

    I have purchased a HB-1100S. I was hoping I could use it to pick up German channels on Astraea 1. I do have a Dish pointed to Astra 1.

    Thanks for any help.

    You need to change to non-freesat mode and then do a channel search.

    I don't have access to my unit at the moment so I can't check but if you can't find out how, post again and I can check later.

    Thank You Repassac. I found that mode in settings and it worked. I now have the German channels. Is there a way to edit and delete some of these channels?

    Thanks

    I have just done a scan in non freesat for FTA channels. (HDR-1000S).

    Found 129 TV and 28 radio.

    Channel numbering starts at the first channel found as 5000 (channel 4) on 28.2E. You can delete and renumber using lcn 5000. 19.2E will be different.

    First channel found will be Mainfranken HD

    While in non freesat choose editable channels.

    Unlike a Foxsat-HDR you cannot record non freesat nor use time shifting.
