Hi Janet,
That will probably be because the Sky box is plugged in via HDMI and Freeview
may be Scart. Scart is inherently louder than HDMI.
All the best

Hi all
I am assured that this has been fixed now, although you may need to turn off
your box at the mains for 20 seconds to get the update. Do let me know if it’s
not.
Cheers
Barry

I have a very old sky digibox and 996 is booming in on it no problem.
I also have the sky q and 996 is barely audible there.
Don't know if that's the HDMI connection as the scart lead certainly works a
lot better with the old box.
I use the digibox to receive UK EPG as ITV and BBC radio etc are not very
easily accessed on the q box here in Ireland

You may have to get a pair of peepers to find out what the screen is saying
when you switch to it, if you have a TV.
Or of course, try to read it with Be My Eyes.

hello all,
since channel 996 is still not working, is there an easy way to get an up to
date list of sky channel numbers, as sky seem to have messed about with a lot
of them again, and it is proving next to impossible to find my usual channels
with out the good old 996.
