    No Signal on 28east, but ok on 13/19east

    Hi,

    I have a fixed dish with LNBs pointed at 13e, 19.2e and 28.2e, using a skybox F3. All was fine (75%+ reception on each sat) until a few days ago when I started having problems with the 28.2e channels. The other 2 sats are fine, but I was getting no signal (intensity 29%, quality 10%) on 28.2e. The signal reappeared briefly but now is back to 'no signal' for all channels / transponders.

    Is this signal necessarily then a problem with either the LNB, the switch or the cable connecting the LNB to the switch? Or could it be a problem with the skybox? Not overly keen on going onto the roof to investigate....

    Cheers

          Could be a faulty switch.

          I had a 4 port one & one by one, the ports started packing up so only one was usable in the end.

          I put a new diseqc switch on & all was fine again.

            Thanks for the advice folks. For some strange reason, it's been fine again the last couple of days without me doing anything?!
