Question, I had Astro and then migrated to Njoi using the same Astro box (with smart card, not the Byond UI, the old blue UI). Currently the box has some audio issue and I want to get a new box. Would it work if I am able to find the same old UI astro box and cucuk my smart card in or it's the end of the road for me of the 30 free channels? joshhd liked this post

QUOTE(joshhd @ Jun 27 2021, 11:56 PM) What audio issue is it? Describe how does it sound like. buzzing and sometimes, dead silence. It happens once a while.Legacy box have been discontinued since ages ago. If the box spoils, then that's the end for you.  so... even if I have another blue UI astro box laying around, I can't use it? Road to only 18 free channels then? |

QUOTE(joshhd @ Jun 28 2021, 08:09 AM) The channel list seems outdated. You need to refresh the channel list. I tried doing that b4 going thru the channels. Got 0-weak (red) signal.On your Astro remote control, press MENU, select Satellite Signal. And then press OK to Download. Wait about 1 minute, it'll refresh the channel list. And then try tune to these channels again: 148, 601, 140, 502, 602, 200, 149, 147 |

QUOTE(joshhd @ Jun 28 2021, 09:30 AM) Oh, you need to go MENU>Installation setup>Manual Configuration. Manual config and it asks for pin. Not able to proceedAnd then press down button on remote 2x to go to "Base frequency", and then change from 10.982 GHz to 11.682 GHz first.  Note: Please make sure your LNB Powering option is turned On. Save the settings, and then go back to MENU>Satellite Signal again. See if the signal readings is now shown in green colour. If yes, press OK to download list of services (means refresh channel list). And then go through the channels again. |

QUOTE(joshhd @ Jun 28 2021, 02:49 PM) So you're able to view these channels too? You don't see "Service currently not available" on these channels? Yeap. Able to view. Weirdly Tv1 & 2 is down.148, 601, 140, 502, 602, 200, 149, 147 As for the audio buzzing thing, try use other RCA cable to connect to your TV. Will try looking for another RCA cable. 😅 joshhd liked this post

QUOTE(joshhd @ Jun 28 2021, 04:00 PM) Hmm... I believe channel 122 also showing Service Currently Not Available, right? Another RCA cable tested, same result. Comes and goes. I actually start to wonder if it’s actually because of this action that causes it to have buzzing sound, spraying WD-40 on the contacts of the cables.Anyway, if you encounter any issues with your legacy Astro box, such as getting 0 signal reading at the Satellite Signal page and unable to update channels, feel free to post a question on this thread. Thanks for the help tho! joshhd *edit Have not tried channel 122 This post has been edited by PoisonSoul: Jun 28 2021, 07:27 PM joshhd liked this post
