[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 5721, member: 175144"] Rool 1 - Dont go out in a gail to check a dish, for any reason. Wind, slippery tiles, low flying animals etc etc Rool 2 - In taking the connections apart in this weather you let some moisture into the connector and therefore either into the LNB or worse still into the cable, once its there it only goes downwards into the receiver Anyhow - as mentioned before the PSR series - both the FTA Analogue /Digital , and I believe the FTA digital only used to have switching problems. This may be improved by another LNB and this should be your first port of call Rolf - the Switch you mention used to alter the frequency by 500 MHz downwards (and later there was an option of both 500 down and 500 up to allow older receivers to get stuff with newer LNBs - I think) Since it alters only the IF frequency this will verify if the problem is due to terrestrial interference or a notch that affects only long runs of cable at this frequency Can you try taking the receiver out to the dish on a very short cable run (in the dry only )?
