BBC Scotland? Thru Maxview receiver (1 Viewer)

[Ipetchey]

Anyone know if it is possible to pick up BBC1 Scotland through a Maxview satellite receiver. We can pick up just about all BBC1 regions, but not Scotland. Since we are touring Scotland (john O Groats at the moment) it would be nice to tune in for local weather and news.

Thanks, Ian

you may have to retune the correct frequency manually.
your users handbook should tell you how.

The Maxview is a free to air box so when you search for all channels it should find it BUT you need to locate it in all those channel numbers. Bit tedious and you cant rely on a channel number from another maxview owner as they can be different, depending on when searches are done..

Happy hunting..

 

[Ipetchey]

Thanks. I will give it a go tonight.
We are on Astra 2south, 28.2E. Do I need to change?
We only have a 400mm dish and are as far north as you can possibly get.

 

[Ipetchey]

Still can not find it. A search on all channels gives me BBC NI, Arabic, Wales etc, but not Scotland.
I have also tried Astra 1, 19.2E where I can get BBC world and lots of German, French channels etc, but not Scotland
