    Default UEC DSD700 locked by Selectv?

    Hi,
    I recently bought a Selectv sub to use with an old Aurora UEC700. Up until last week I used the box to watch Setanta on Optus D2 Globecast with an Epsilon card and occasionally watched Aurora with an old 1.2 card. I now use it for Selectv but it is too slow in showing program info and this arvo I tried to use it for Setanta again but now it does not load the freqs. Tried with Aurora too and nothing came up, only searching for freq and three bars flashing. The only way I can get it to load anything is to get it back to Selectv. Could it be that Selectv has locked my receiver? Has it happened to anyone before?
    Thank you

    How do you watch Select and Aurora when they are on different satellites ? Or am I missing something here ??

    Sorry Sanity, English is not my first language
    I have three dishes and two receivers, the Uec and a Nokia9500, and three irdeto cards. Until last week the uEC was connected to D2 and C1 with a Multiswitch and both services (globecast and aurora) loaded fine. All I had to do was to swap cards when watching Setanta or Aurora. Now I can't do it anymore, Selectv is the only service that loads on the UEC.

    Diseqc switch or diseqc settings in receiver are ok?
    Sounds like its your settings.

    Have you tried to bypass the switch using a joiner and test the dishes directly one at a time?

    I doubt you reciever has been locked by selectv.

    the settings/switches are fine. I tried with a single cable to single sat, reset receiver to default settings (Aurora 12407V 11300 single lnb) but no joy. very puzzled. Had the box for more than 5yrs and never had a problem before.

    Box (you have 2 to test with), the lnb (you have 3 dishs), or a break in the wiring/connection.
    Id try diffrent frequencys with the 2 recievers over the 3 dishes, one at a time without the disqc.
    I find it hard to comprehend that both your recievers are "locked"or have failed at the same time (unless you had a lightning hit or a power surge).
    Id go back to basics, you had heaps of equipment to mix and match with a single receiver, single dish setup for testing. Its a process of elimination till you find the culprit.
