[QUOTE="Captain Jack, post: 946237, member: 243342"] The first simple thing to check is the connections from the dish (LNB) to the back of the receiver. The F plugs screw on connections should be tight and play free. If that checks out, try a new run of cable from the dish to the receiver. It could also be the LNB itself that's faulty (not unheard of). If there's more than one output on the LNB, try plugging the cable into a different one. These are the first things to check and would cost very little to put right. It could also be the dish being loose on its bracket and a short gust of wind takes it out of alignment. 50% quality isn't particularly strong, which suggests that the dish might be slightly misaligned. It could, of course, be the receiver itself but it doesn't sound like it at this stage. [/QUOTE]
