[QUOTE="archive10, post: 904659"] As Rolf say, signal Quality is the most important. I have one installation with strength == 10%, quality aound 70, ad it works a charm. 1. LNB replacement - wait until other areas are exhausted. They do wear out (electronics), but can be awkward to change if dish is on roof. Remember to buy an LNB compatible with your Sky dish, as the shape of dish may require special feed horn shape. Post pic of dish here if in doubt. 2. Alignment is everything; ideally get someone with a SAT meter to align dish (ie. Pro installer). If adventurous, try it yourself using STB meter. But you mileage will vary. 3. Unless you can visually identify kinks/bends in cable, or bad connectors etc, your cabling is probaby ok. [/QUOTE]
