sorry mate but there are a few people selling them ......
this will boost the signal drop you are having

On the back of the sly box disconnect the input cable 2 & see if that fix's your problem

All them are for those having issues with H and V frequencies (ie incapable of switching between both freqencies). Yupyaa states he doesn't receive any $ channels when $ky box is on.

Wouldn't it be he only receive certain $ channels when $ky box is on for these fixes to work?

The fix i think also works as a booster to boost the signal to the F5 box from the lnb

i would say by reading the posts he has put up.... the sly box is taking most of the power & signal from the lnb

so the signal that's reaching the F5 box is not strong enough.....the inline signal boost will surly boost the signal to the box


its the same with the official sly box.....if the cable is over 30ft or 30m carn't remember which you can also fit a signal boost to give you a better signal on the receiver

I'm sure the diode fix works just the same as this item http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Inline-Sat...item2c53ccc7c7 which to my understanding they both boost crap signal's

I'm going to order one il let yee no if it works

The diode fix does not boost the signal, in fact it attenuates it slightly! The diode fix is simply a diode in series with the centre conductor of the coax. See the attachment in this post http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...ml#post2040128

It has been said that the diode reduces the voltage to the LNB enough to get it to switch the vertical channels correctly. It's also been said that some Zinwell/Visiblewave LNB's put a voltage on the unused ports of the LNB when a box is connected to another port, upsetting the boxes ability to switch correctly. Either way, it should only affect vertical channels.

Unless there is a fault with the LNB, all the ports should be completely independant, so it shouldn't matter if another box is connected or not, the signal should be the same on all ports.

As you say, signal amplifiers are used for long cable runs. I can't see it helping in this case, as the FTA channels are still working.

Yupyaa..what does the sig strength & quality read on a $ channel when it's not working?

Is the sig strength & quality of a FTA channel affected when the $ly box is turned on downstairs?

[bbb_uk]

This is a strange one indeed.

I'm not sure if it's possible certain ports of the LNB can play up or not but if it isn't too much hassle is it possible to use a different port on the LNB; the other free one or maybe swap one of the ports used by $ky box with F5.

Even if it is the LNB then I can't work out why its just the $ channels that refuse to work and FTA are all ok.

Yupyaa, I know you were asked in an earlier post if its definately all $ channels have no signal (what is signal strength of these channels when not working) but ALL FTA channels are ok but I don't remember you replying.

when he did channel scan ..did he do fta only?????

Not sure wat the strength was cz my trial has ran out..

And no FTA is not affected wen $ly is on downstairs

I dunno the strength wen there scrambled as my trial ran out.
But on the channels with no signal at the moment the signal intensity is 45% and signal quality 10%..

All FTA work perfect

Signal intensity/quality of 45%/10% is low, maybe low enough to effect viewing.

There are several satellites so I dont know if its possible some satellites maybe slightly on fringe of reception.

Can you tell us the signal intensity/quality of both the channels below:-

Challenge - should be on transponder 11565/V/27500 (although mine is slightly different 11565/V/27375). Is this channel ok to view as its FTA and what is signal intensity/quality?

SkyLivingIt+1 - should also be on same transponder as above. What is this chanels signal intensity/quality?

As you will notice both these channels are on same satellite so this will determine if quality is an issue. I realise trial is over but hopefully you should still be able to display this info.

Challenge works signal intensity is 90 , signal quality is 74

Sky living+1 says scrambled??

What bbb_uk was asking is what is the sig strength & quality like even though it is scrambled?

As both of these channels are on the same transponder, it would be interesting to compare the sig strength & quality of both. They should be the same.

O right sorry,, signal intensity and quality is the same on that channel
