On the 13 and 28 degrees I seem to get signal night and day without any issues. On 46, 10east, 52.5 east at night I seem to lose the signal/unable to watch these stations. The receiver comes with check signal and no audio/video message. I previously had these satellites locked.

On 46 east I am trying to watch CBC sports. The no audio/video message comes up, even after I rescaned the satellite and CBC sports is found. All other channels on 46 are viewable though its just the sports channel. Also on 52.5 I am unable to view Varzish sports.

Could the lnb be at fault? I had the installation done around 15 or so months ago

The dish is 90cm motorised.

Are you using USaLS/GoToX, or DiSEqC 1.2 for locking onot satellites? If you are using the automatic systems, have you tried sending the dish to the refence satellite?
The dish or motor mount may have moved, probably more likely than the LNB being faulty.

I use Usals, though on the receiver says goes to 46 east, just the result of getting a channel varies. For example I received CBC sports but I know in the evening I will not be able to watch it

Ok on the command type I usually go to Go to position and not go to reference

Sometimes USaLS can get slightly lost, sending your dish to reference or "0" can cure that. If that doesn't solve things, it'll probably mean either the motor mount has moved around the mast slightly, or the dish elevation has dropped half a degree or so.

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

Does a neighbour hang their washing out at night in front of the dish?

Your moniker suggests you dont have a system either, so what did you have installed?

somewhere across the line of the dish there is a tree that block access to some satellites. I have a 90cm motorised dish with usals

Thne tree may well be weakening the signal enough to push it over the "digital cliff"

A 90cm dish is probably a bit small for 10E
