Hi there
I recently purchased a second hand Amstrad Sky Digibox DRX400 to replace the one that I had for sometime that had completely stopped working. It is the identical model to the defunct one. This box is my multiroom box - I have a Sky+ HD box in the living room. The multiroom box shows fault 29. When looking at the settings, on the Signal Test screen, there is no Signal Strength or Signal Quality indicated and the Lock Indicator shows Not Locked. I have spoken to Sky and they said they would send a download to rectify this. This was a few days ago and there has been no change. I have checked all connections several times and all appears to be OK. The Sky+ HD box is working fine, so I assume there is no problem with the satellite dish.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks. Steve

Hi jb38
Many thanks for your advice, it was spot on. The second hand digibox I got from eBay was in fact defective (will leave appropriate feedback). I have now put my original Sky+ box (which was spare after I got my Sky+ HD box) in it's place - didn't realise I could do this as I thought it would only operate with the 2 feeds from the dish.
Thanks again.
Steve.
