Yes Im sure you have to choose a provider to do a scan to get channels

6875 = symbol rate

Provider ID = 5E 01

Once you have installed the software from the above link you will have access to a secret menu. Type 1570 at installation menu and it will give you access to a secret menu. Turn on EMU and then do a full scan again. Save and reboot and then you should have access to all channels.

Note: This only works with Chorus MMDS. Are you sure you are MMDS. it will say it on your bill

You might be in troube there. Was told the box was for Chorus MMDS only. I have chorus MMDS and it worked once I got access the the 1570 menu.
Not sure what else to suggest. Maybe you could get access to someone with MMDS and confirm that it works. In that case you will have no problem getting rid of the box.

Just got confirmed from a reliable source that it should work with Chorus MDS.

Are you sure you are mds/mmds and not cable.

Do you have an mds/mmds aerial on the roof?

Tried all the manual scans. I don't understand "symbol rate" there's nothing on the menu for this. Can you explain?

Sorry I thought the setup was the same as the normal SV , as I never set up an MMDS b0x ,

Have you got a power insertor like the above member ?

I assume the power inserter is the 'splitter' from the main aerial input(located in my attic). if so then I have. i originally had one with input and two output (as I have two chor*s boxes) I replaced this with one with 3 output. My 2 chor*s are working fine .

Its a small silver box , the aerial comes into the house , screws to it and carries on into the Chor*s box
