[QUOTE="wolsty, post: 20167, member: 175166"] @ 2old. Hmm. Very interesting! The LNB is only a couple of months old; I bought it from Channel Hopper. It's worked well to date. I've just checked the polarisation of the channels concerned. All the 28 deg ones I was interested in are vertical, as are the French C+. However, the idea comes unstuck on 1 deg W. Kiosk 1 - 11 are horizontal (very weak signal where I live, but clears during daylight or when there is no cloud/rain). 12 - 22 are vertical and I've never had any difficulty with them. BUT, the problem seems to have gone away. I've left the receiver switched on permanently, first swithced to S*y, then to C+ - so each channel has been locked on for some time. Both 28 deg and C+ now clear reliably as soon as I switch to them. Is it the case that various parameters are updated automatically and that by leaving the STB 'on soak' on one of the affected channels the various settings have automatically updated? :) :) [/QUOTE]
