[QUOTE="zza1pqx, post: 836936, member: 374947"] Hello. I'm based in West Yorkshire and have an 80cm dish pointed at Hispasat (30dg West). I have a Zon receiver for Portuguese TV and up until a week ago it worked very well. Recently the signal has been lost, ('check cable' dialogue coming up on TV), and so we got a man in today to check the dish alignment. The man has been. He has checked the signal through the cable with a device inside my house and then after about an hour on top of a wobbly ladder he has said that we require an LNB which will cost us more and won't be available until Monday. Having looked LNB up I'm a bit confused. Unfortunately I'm at work and my Portuguese girlfriend has taken the mans word for it (fair enough). My question to her was, has our LNB fallen off, broken or in fact ever been there? Is it feasible that we could have been receiving a signal without one or is it a necessary part of the set up? I don't remember ever seeing one. I'm concerned that I may be paying for something that I have never needed before and that consequently the actual problem has not yet been diagnosed leading ultimately to a bill similar to the original cost of the setup. So is LNB necessary? Will I already have had one and just not known about it? How fragile are they? I would have been less cautious if the man had known where hispasat was. Thank you [/QUOTE]
