[QUOTE="slayter, post: 126069, member: 191438"] Hi m8 I am having a very similar problem to you. I have a DM500S which is getting feeds from a Sky mini dish and a 2nd dish aimed at 16east for Digitalb. Goes through a Diseqc 2/1 switch. On 16 east I get sporadic picture breakup, freezing etc. I have been on this for three weeks now and have tried pretty much everything that might cause it but still no different. I know I am bang on alignment as this feed is coming from a twin lnb and my other separate system using this lnb is receiving pictures loud and clear. I tried different images, different switches, different connecters - the only thing left to try, which I am going to do on Monday, is to re-lay the cable from the 16east dish to the switch with higher quality cable. Going to go with CT100 as the cable in at the mo isn't that good quality. Plus my Sky channels are fine with no breakup but this is a very short cable from sky dish to switch. This is why I'm thinking it could be the cable from my 16east dish to the switch as it's quite long and not great quality cable. To be honest mate, this is doing my head in now and I sympathise with you. It's a fooking pain in the arse and whats worse is I can't pinpoint it. Maybe someone with more expert knowledge could say whether it might be a cable problem or not. I'm going to try it anyway so it rules that point out. I'm now on a mission to sort this (thrown too much money at it to stop now) M8, be interested to hear how you go with yours. What cable are you using and is it a long run from your sky dish to your switch? Cheers Slayter [/QUOTE]
