No luck here either. Zap, if you are in contact with Luken, you should inform them about this problem. There is some bug in their uplink equipment :thinking that prevents azbox from working.

They know about the problems. They were in bankruptcy protection for years after losing some lawsuit over the retro channel and I think they had to cut back on everything including good engineering costs. Remember how they just kind of vanished a couple years back from a few different satellites they were on unannounced... then they jam packed everything on the 87 degree bird. Well now that they have settled that suit and have emerged from the bankruptcy protection we are now seeing some changes coming that look promising ... give them some time and I think they will resolve all of these technical issues now that they have free cash flow again.

The majority of inexpensive fta receivers on the market today will pickup Luken channels just fine. It was only the Azbox Premium HD that struggled with these and the problem was isolated to the tuner of that particular stb.

Glad to see Luken Communications will be sticking around for a while. :wink:
