Hi we have a KVH R4 dome which has a problem.

Does anyone know of a satellite service center near south Yorks?

We thought it was a frequency problem, but the signal on our drive is brilliant, but it won't tune in anywhere else.

When we arrived home yesterday, I just turned on the Avtex and it comes on straight away - without turning on the dome. This is not normal as we should have to search for the signal every time we change position.

Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Ginny and Mike

You sure you are watching via your dome and not just Digital TV
check your source on the tV as it may default to display from where ever is giving it a signal be it your Sat Or Digital:Doh:

I had a problem with my R4 dome it would not lock onto a signal I phoned Tracvision..(the dealers) and they put me onto the guy that installed it...however because we were in France at the time they had to send a local dealer from La Rochelle to the Ill de Oleron to sort it..then it packed up again and I contacted the dealers when I was at the NEC show and they sorted it..

There is an email address LMsales@caclase.co.uk phone numbers are 08452692550 02392247920

Unfortunately we only have the dome, there was no digital aerial on our new motorhome.

Thanks for the information, I have contacted C A Clase, they gave me Auto sounds phone number in Bradford and we are booked in tomorrow morning! Let's hope it is just a software problem!!

Hi

It does sound like a "software" issue.

Good luck :thumb:

Yes apparently all domes and dishes need the software update now they have sorted out the satellite frequency and position.

Let's hope they don't mess with them again!!
