Mmmm think I might go Internet option and stream Filmon through TV rather than a new dish as that may also become obsolete at year down the line.I hear the footprint may get even smaller by 2014 and another change in August 2013.

I have just got ITV BBC so must be the new signal. I'm wondering if there is a better LNB setting I could use?

Well here's an update to my ongoing sat saga. The new LNB resolved the problem when I came out in April and all channels worked great. However this week I have no signal again: ( Everything looked ok when I checked the dish and LNB I left the out mains and rebooted box with no joy. What I then...

Im only here for about 3 more days so wont be about to receive. I will have a hunt locally, if not get one back home.

Thanks. Looks like i will have to hunt down a lnb.

I am struggling to get a LNB locally here so for the sake of a few euros I purchased a new cable but that did not resolve problem. I did note on the sky settings in LNB setup it states Lo frequency 9.75 and High band as 10.6 os this correct for out here?

I know : ). But just plugged into another dish and still not working. Could be the cable but will try a new LNB and see how that goes. Thanks for advise.

Hi I cant see any markings on the dish or lnb but here is a image which I hope will help?

Hello again all. Sorry for dragging up an old post but after returmimg to Spain and havinf the sat up and running since June(it just worked again on return) arring in October I have the same falt again. I think it is defo the LNB as I swapped boxes over today and still no signal. The LNB still...

Well I tried it lastnight and everything so far is working fine so I can only conclude the fault must lie withwith the lnb as the box worked as soon as I switched on. Maybe it will happen again over the next couple of days.

Hi Richard, I go out on Sunday night so will have a look at it then and try the set up you advised. I have saved this forum to my Kindle so I can update on my progress online.

Many thanks.

I am still thinking it may be wise to take another box. A couple on ebay in my local area are Sky + HD Boxes. Do they still work ok with the freeview without subscription and are you able to record programmes?

Hi Richard, Thanks for that I will print that off and have a go. I'm on VM here in the UK so wont be able to play. Fingers crossed this will work. Will keep you informed how it went when I go out late next week.

Hi Post 24 Could be a possibility and I did consider this. But I did try a second box in good weather. Post 25 yes I stuck my finger down their and had a rummage! And my second box had no signal probs for about 10 mins when plugged in. Post 26. Richard I do hope this is the problem and would...
