no buddy ,the one in my lounge was taken upstairs and it worked so not the upstairs cabling , the upstairs box did not work upstairs or downstairs and the ex demo /refurb or what ever didn't work upstairs or down stairs either if that makes sense .

yes just can't believe the one i have just bought on ebay sold as an ex demo by a company is also faulty ,have sent them an email ,you were bang on the obey buddy and my bedroom hd box has had its day ,over 4 years old anyway but the replacement is a slim line one and supposed to be a 2012 model.still waiting for the seller to respond .

the seller is being really arsey and telling me his box works perfectly ,he says to try it in my lounge where my lounge box is fine ,I have done that and his box says no satellite signal is being received ,exactly the same problem as my faulty bedroom box ,ahhh getting annoyed now , Ino have my own faulty box and looks like i have just bought another one

He is now telling me to all sorts of tests ,with the thing off go into single feed mode do this do that ,what the hell difference is that going to make ,I don't need to do that with my working lounge unit ,not happy at the mo ,the guy tells me the new 2012 slim models do not suffer from any psu problems or anything else of the sort ,I must be an idiot because I cannot get the dam thing to accept a signal .
