Hi People
ive got this problem
i purchased a skyline dsr 4000 from b&q"s last weekend
set it up seem to go ok ,receiving lots of channel pointing at astra 2A,b 28.2E like the manual says .the thing keeps turning off after about 10-15 secounds or so the receiver resets its self and then comes back on .
I took the recever back to b&q 's and got another one but same thing happens on off on off.
Right satalite isnt aligned up prople i think , so i purchase sat finder and get real stong signal but it still keeps turning off, so i double check my connectors and there ok .
so i took this unit back to b&q 's and get another one ,and guess what ,you guessed it its still turning off.
im bangin my head against the wall what can it be .
while the receiver is on and picture is fine i disconnect the skart lead from the receiver/tele but unit holds up and doesnt turn off , so i try disconnecting the sat cable whilst im getting good signal and the unit turns off ,so the problem must be between the receiver and the dish.
this is the silly question ,the coax that came with the package was not long enough so rather than join it i thought no i want to do a good job of installing my satalite system and went and bought some new coax.
the coax i purchased said digital satalite coax .is there any way that the coax cable im using is not proper satalite coax and causing the receiver to safe gaurd and turn off ,i know the lmb is powered by the receiver via the coax so do you think this is possible. It does this on mostly all channels but not bbc1 or itv .
help me out please or i feel another trip to B&Q's is on the cards the weekend and i really dont want that
many thanks
