[QUOTE="valb, post: 15182, member: 175546"] I got rid of the on/off cycle approx. every 4 hours by adjusting the LNB skew so that unless it was raining a lot ITV1 London was always available. As were Disney, Hallmark and Eurosport News. ITV2 was seldom available. As you have not noticed any dropoff in signal strength I guess the problem must be at my end. Perhaps it's water in the cable, 'though as you write it's a question of milimeters so I still have a theory that the cold has caused the dish to go out of alignment. As it is motorised I have been able to test east/west but not up/down. I'm just waiting for the temperature to rise. By the way how much did you have to give for your dish? Mine is an old Triax prime focus which I understand is about the equivalent of a 1,1m offset dish. [/QUOTE]
