[QUOTE="2cvbloke, post: 639997, member: 199791"] Looks like a Cambridge Enhanced or Universal to me, most likely Enhanced going by the age rust on the dish... :) Though, I think the cable's pretty much shot as there's no waterproofing on the F plug on the LNB, so water's probably gotten in and damaged the copper shielding... :( But, if the dish is easily accessible, you can replace the cable (if the LNB is a Universal, otherwise it's the hacksaw treatment!!!), and use self-amagumating tape to seal the connection up, Cambridges are pretty reliable LNBs, so should still work... :) [/QUOTE]
