For the last few days my Dreambox has lost all signal strength.
This happened once before but after a dry spell it all kicked back in again and functioned as normal.
This time however I don't appear to be as lucky.
What's the best way of drying out a motorised satellite setup ?
It's very high up and I was wondering if there is a way that I could set it up on the arc on the ground and then mount it onto its pole again.
Is this possible ?
The setup was only temporary just over xmas and it was only able to get Hotbird.
The motor makes a noise but does not turn and the pole keeps shocking me This is what you get when you enlist the help of a shoddy satellite installer who takes your money and runs. I had to buy ladders and a satellite meter myself so I could try and sort this mess out.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be very welcome
My setup is
Dreambox 7000s 120gb hdd + dream keyboard
(keyboard for sale, if interested post your offers)
80 cm polycarbonate dish with 0.3 lnb
Attached to house just above roof so it clears it with a t & k bracket and galvonised pole.
