signal prob

[Wingnut]

hi,lookin abit of advice here if possible, up until last week my motorised dish was perfect until it started acting up, or i think its that, when im watching 28.2e i got nearly full signal then all of a sudden signal dissapeard,i thought this was strange as i no my dish is alligned as a pro fixed it a couple of months back and was working perfectly,after a few min the signal appeared and channels working ok,suddenly signal dissapears again,this time it appears then disapears continuiosly,on all channels, sometimes signal ok for about 5 min then starts to drop up and down, tried a west sat and dish picked them up ok but again signal there then disaperaing,same thing happening as on 28.2e,the only sat that signal dosent dissapear is 23.5e,which all channels are viewable with full signal, could it be possible that when i move my dish west the coax cable is coming loose on motor? if this is possible would my motor still move? as mine is moving perfectly,i would check the coax cable myself scared of heights , any advise would be greatful,thanks

i can also remember before that obne time i noticed my dish wasnt moving before and i looked up and the coax cable had came lose, it had some way came loose over the months when my dish was turning east to west etc, not sure if this is the problem this time as my dish is still moving etc, also im using a dm800s

now I'm not getting on any sats, only 23.5 which is full signal, is there is coax cables on the dish? 1 to power the motor and 1 for signal? I do think when my motor goes west the signal cable is losening and stoping signal, what u guys think ?

well just to say that it was the coax cable coming loose, i was getting looser everytime the dish was moving between east and west, sorted now
