    Default All Sly channels are blank even FTA

    Hi,

    Since few days all my Sly and FTA channels are blank. It has been daily gales and gusts, it appears Sly dish is misaligned. Attached are screen shots of both tuners.

    Am I right in thinking there is no signal. What are your suggestions to fix it?

    I have also added reception settings of both tuners: A and B.

    Many thanks.

    Sounds like you've answered your own question, but the easiest and cheapest way to test your dish is to borrow a mates satellite box, any type will do even a legit sky box, attach to your dish and see if it picks up any FTA channels, if it doesn't then you know your dish is misaligned or the lnb/cable is damaged.

    Then it's either up a ladder tweaking your dish until you get a signal or pay some bloke to do the work for you.

    I did check dish and didn't find any change in alignment. This weekend I will test signal using my friend's openbox S10. Thanks.
