    It would be due to the LNB settings in the fox box not matching the one you are actually using (on your sat dish).

    Cheers, RHCP.

    Yep, it is. Also on WIN WA (Aurora) tomorrow at 11.40pm WST.

    First, make sure you know what LNB you are using. Then, for instructions on changing it on the Foxtel box.

    My Sydney guide is showing Formula One on One HD Tonight (Saturday 31/10/09) at 11.55pm to 1.25 am Sunday (1/11/09)



    Have I got the right Formula 1 ?

    Yep, and it's also simulcasted on . One has extra coverage like prelim. race and qualifying, whereas Ten only shows the GP.

    That's cool. I just remember hearing that Ten weren't allowed to only air F1 on One without showing it on Ten. Some ACMA ruling, IIRC.

    Abu Dhabi race is on quite a bit later than normal due the the DST change around. Normally we don't notice it, as they have normally left European timezoned races by now.

    Qualies are on live at 2am NZT (12am AEDT), and race is at 2am NZT as well. This whole DST switch has in effect pushed races 2 hours later
