    Need help with VU+ Duo channel's

    Did a rescan on my vu+ duo the other day and ended up losing 2000+ channel's ...so now when i do a new scan all i can get is 131 channel's IE: bbc, itv, more4 but no sky or bt channel's

    satellite is ok and i'm picking up Astra 28.2E using my WS6906 Satellite Finder and seeing over 3000 channels.

    vu+ duo is set up on the twin turners as (simple) Astra 28.2E

    anyone know what is going on or is the box doomed ? Thanks.

    Maybe the box is on its way out the Duo is getting long in the tooth these days. I had several over the years repaired 2 that had capacitor issue. Upgraded 5 years ago to a Duo2.

    Thanks to both of you, had the capacitor issue a few years ago and fixed it but it's not that this time ..... After playing around with it last night, it looks like it could be the LNB voltage chip as blow on the tuners Hidden Content

    Anyone know what is the cheapest sat Receivers out there that will take cccam's ? Thanks.
