Using your remote click on Menu then Installation or New Installation and let the box retune itself. This should take about five minutes max.

IT HASN'T GOT ONE!  evil: Hard to belive but true, Japanese junk.

What's going on anyway please?
I'll go the ale 'ouse to watch it if needs be.

New digi box will cost about ?25 from Argos then.

But this one contains me dvd and video player/recorder too, and it cost mucho 3 years ago.
Bloody digi swap over....what a load of utter utter total garbage and waste of time.

I've hit it, and now got BBC Wales Sheep tv. ::)

I'll hopefully now be able to watch summat at lunchtime, albeit in some strange foreign language.  ::)

Dunno then ~ It must be capable of retuning as it will have had to tune itself when you first installed it.
Even a basic telly has the ability to be retuned to allow for the differences in settings required when people move house (which on average they do every 7.5 years) to a different transmitter area.

Perhaps you could find the original instructions?  scared:

Self tuning apparently. Even switching it off at the mains doesn't werk. Don't do instructions, and they can't be found anyway.
I probably binned them. lol:

This walk looks like a jolly good wheeze anyway. Shame I can't join in. Support in spirit however.

Right, I'm off to catch a train to get to the Chandos. I have no phone, no wallet, no ID whatsoever. Just cash. Hope to speak to you all a bit later!

I have a hoooooge folder full of never opened instructions ~ many for things long since thrown away.

Instructions are meant, as I frequently tell SWWLTBO, for those who don't know what they are doing.

Look up the model on t'interweb. They all have hidden engineers menus so if you can find out how to access that the rescan option may be in there.
