[QUOTE="markyd23, post: 829849, member: 195315"] Hi guys, had an afternoon of re-doing and renewing! have 2 dishes about 100m away through the woods. Had problems with the 'invalid postcode' and lack of channels on freesat (is also sky dish) but after a wee adjustment and clean of the dish is better. However, I put the meter on my sadly neglected motor dish (the one I have never been able to set up!) and picked sirius on the meter, got it locked and got a pic. All seemed fine but when back in the house on the technomate, nothing locked on sirius and strength and quality going madder by the minute, fluctuating from 20% to 70% and all points in between. As the meter worked fine by the dish, would this suggest the cable is on its way out? I used to get some success with my old silvercrest receiver but nothing with the technomate. Could the cable have been the problem all along? the meter would suggest motor, lnb & dish are all ok? [/QUOTE]
