[QUOTE="alanwaddle72, post: 2167"] hello, i recently acquired sky digital on a 105cm dish in helsinki, finland. there should be no problems with the reception (a mate of mine has had it for 2yrs with no problems), but after about a mnth i have run into problems with receiving sky sports 1,2 and 3, and channel 5 (all these are frequency 11758H). the picture cuts off between 7-9pm every day, other than that it is usually perfect. the mate who also has sky digital has totally lost reception of these channels (he has the same size dish but a slightly weaker LNB). we asked the fella who installed the dishes, and he said it could be they have weakened the frequency most probably for maintenance work, but possibly permanently. he also said increasing the dish size to 120cm would not help (which we tend to disagree with), and we would need to increase to 180cm (not possible for us). any help on this would be greatly appreciated - anyone any idea if maintenance work is taking place (and for how long), does a 120cm dish help? are there stronger LNB's in the market (i have .6Mhz i think) and would that help? in short - what can we do?? ta for help in advance!
