[QUOTE="dxsat, post: 131314, member: 193607"] Here in Spain reception has improved since the beginning of the month- perhaps the footprint has shifted westwards at your expense? Things you could look at: If the dish is in the garden, has the earth around it moved slightly? Was it at all windy? Even tiny movement of mountings can wreck Astra 2D reception. Has some rain got in to the LNB ? Did you remember to fit the '0' ring between the LNB and feedhorn? Perhaps the wasp did more damage that you thought, or cleaning it has affected the very sensitive antenna inside the LNB, which shouldn't be touched. Cover the open end of the feedhorn with some transparent plastic or clingfilm. You may have to try another LNB. Consider having a spare for mission-critical components as you may be some distance from a supplier. [/QUOTE]
