[QUOTE="SGB, post: 85588, member: 189098"] Thanks for the reply. My installer has told me that I'm the first 1.5m dish he's installed in this area, although up the coast in Malaga, a 1.3m dish with the same LNB and Sky+ receiver receives these channels 24/7. We previously had a 1.3m offset dish linked to a Pace 2600 and these channels (and many others) were not available after sundown. Unfortunately, a larger dish isn't an option given my space constraints. I've checked the cable and it's marked "(GC) NK 11 CB PHYSICAL FOAM CU 07/04". I'll check to make sure there are no bends in it. The dish is an offset type and was aligned using a spectrum analyzer. My installer also tuned the skew of the LNB at the same time. Do you have any ideas as to why these channels disappear at sundown and then reappear later in the evening without any change in signal strength/quality? Thanks again for the help! [/QUOTE]
