Default How to reset Digibox EPG to default region (with no card)

Hello all,

I have bought a second hand Digibox for FTA channels with no card.
It seems to somehow "remember" its previous region and does not show
me BBC1 London on EPG 101 as I expected the default to be with no
card.
I can still access BBC1 London on 944 but how can I reset this to
default?

Cheers,
Emmanuel

Best bet is go to a neighbours house and borrow their card, put it in for 2
mins, then remove. That will allocate 101 to your local region. (This of
course, assuming you live in London)

Inserting a London region card for a few minutes worked fine.
Thank you Simon.
