remember to turn the power off your box when removing the switch, because if it isn't dead already then there is a good chance it will be if you mess with the connections to it without turning the power off -
i connected the sky dish straight to the skybox and it worked so i changed the diseqc switch and it wouldnt work again, i scratched my head for a few mins and looked up at my 90cm dish only to notice that the tinfoil that i had covering 19 east on a monoblock lnb had blown away with the bad weather we had, i covered it back up again and bingo all working again, sometimes the solution is literally stareing us in the face, thanks sattv5 for your help...OZComment
