Hi

I can not see all the channals on my tv, they have change the frekvens on some of the programs. I have looked in the data for the tv and found that VHF is covering 46-300MHz and UHF is covering 470-855MHz. The channals I can`t see is in the area between 300 to 470MHz. I know I can connect a video or dvd player, but is this the only option or is the tv just too old now. For information I still like my Beovision LX2802N.

nrhalne,

Hi Keith

I am using the tv in Denmark. The problem is that the "cable company" there is supplying the antenna signal have added some more channals and is now starting to use the area between UHF and VHF. I was thinking if there is some kind of opdate of the hardware so it can recive the signal from 300 to 470MHz. When its looking for channals its go from 46-300MHz and then jump to 470-855MHz and then start from 46Mhz again.

Hi again Keith.

I just found out I did not anserw your quistion.

Normaly the tv is working allright until they change the frekvens of some channals. According to the manual (or data) found here on Beoworld the area between 300 and 470MHz is not there.

Per.

Well Per, you are correct that the LX2802 has a dual tuner covering

VHF 46 to 300 MHZ which in the UK was allocated to channels 1 to 13

UHF 470 to 855 MHZ which in the UK remains allocated to channels 21 to 68

So, the LX2802 cannot be upgraded to pick up the frequencies between 300 to 470 Mhz

In most of Europe these frequencies were/are allocated to transmissions other than TV. Clearly since the LX2802 a lot has happened with frequency allocation around Europe, and we have cable now as well and they can transmit on any frequncy they like really within the terms of any licence.

So, the bottomline is, your LX2802 is working correctly, but your cable company has decided to transmit on frequencies not previously used for Television in most countries.

Hi and thanks for the informations.

I am sorry to say the end is near for my tv.

Does this mean the LX2802 will not work when the UK goes to digital?

Any TV will work after the UK goes digital PROVIDED you use a STB (Any make of Set Top Freeview Box) and you have a SCART input on your TV.

We have a Sagem Freeview box connected to the MX5500 in the Bedroom. Picture quality is superb. Better than the Samsung LCD with built in Freeview that is in the Kids Bedroom.
