My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 6 fixed dishes (5E/7E/9E/10E/13E/16E/ 19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S


The last noble sat warrior to fly the olden flag of Analogue

Pull the plug out of the wall, leave for 5 minutes, and plug it back in.

This is ALWAYS the first thing to try if a digibox throws a wobbly

My System: Triax 1.1m and Orbital 80cm Motorised Dishes. Various fixed Dishes. Eclectic selection of Digital and Analogue Receivers. Complex switching and distribution that SWMBO cannot fathom. Nor me.

It might mean one of several things:

Dish gone out of alignment

LNB failed

Dodgy connection

Box failure of some sort



Please tell us exactly what Box you have, as some of them have well known failure modes.


Edit: Yeah, what he said ................
