Hi all, spending a couple of weeks in the motorhome and seem to be finding endless problems!!
I'm trying to set up sky with my camos. On the sky settings page under signal, I'm showing a full bar for signal strength and three quarters if a bar for signal quality. This seems to be the best I can get, but the sky box can't retrieve any listings. Should I be able to get programmes with these signal strengths?
Cheers
David

you are likely looking at the wrong satellite, as there are a couple in the same general area. if your camos dome is auto, have you had it updated after the satellites got moved round? you should be pointing at 28.2 east for sky

you will see the word OK in the box below the bars if you are on the correct satellite. and i think the numbers 0.74 but without checking i m not sure.

If you have the Camos crank up, as your heading suggests..use the location ring as stated on the instructions, after a few set ups you will find it quite easy.
I use mine with an Avtex sat tv and use the signal bars as a guide.:winky:

At first I had same problem as you...by tuning into Astra 1 instead of 2 :Eeek:

I've tried everything I can think of but still no luck. I'm wondering whether it could be the dish itself? Anyone know where I can get a camos dish checked/ serviced??

this is what you need on the screen :

if you are showing any signal strength on you set up your sat dish is unlikely to be a problem it will be your set up on the wrong satellite
