Hoiya
Advice please.
I've soldered the little white wire to revert the rig back to standard but cannot get the UK channels even after I've tried a reset as well as pressing F then turning the rig back on. Have I missed something?
Thanks in advance

I had a look around the net to find a fix, nothing came up, i can only say try to check the joint you have done on the small white cable, some body will come on later today and hopefully have a fix for you, it may be a Menu task.

Have tried the F button both ways as suggested & via the handbook. The joint appears to be fine but will see if I can resolder it.
