[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 949440, member: 176362"] Hi David welcome to the forum. :) As it was working we know the basic setup is ok, so something must have chaged First things to check are: the f-connection(s) at the back of the receiver - its not unknown for the lady of the house to do some dusting, and knock the cabling just enough to dislodge it as the f-conn wasnt screwed onto the cable tight enough dish misalignment - the dish needs to be within ~1 degree in all directions. You seem to know what you are doing for this one. lnb failure - especially if its a few years old cable damage - cables can be damaged by animals chewing them, someone pushing a drawing pin through the outer sheaths onto the inner core, careless use of garden choppers, malicious damage by knife etc. [/QUOTE]
