Sky issue after moving

[eddiecme]

Quick question about sky when moving house.

I don't have a sky subscription just use my box for freesat (if thats what you call it) anyway, moved to a new build block of flats plugged my two ends in to the sat point and no signal.

I took off the face plate and connected the cables straight into the back of the box, still no signal.

Traced the cables back to the booster/switch, whatever its called, in the riser cupboard and terminations seem good.

Am I being silly or i have to do something to the skybox? any ideas or anything i can test?

cheers

others have TV working here

thats strange as vision is usually reliable stuff. Try getting an analogue signal(standard tv only) through the outlet too eliminate freesat box. Otherwise you really need a tv engineer with all the test kit as your Pi**ing in the wind otherwise. Could be damaged between the booster and outlet!

there is only the 2 sat port setup, the other cables are just wound up behind a blank plate. I think i need an engineer to check the line, i'll go back to the block developer
