Hello


I have recently installed a new satellite dish to use with my Freesat HD box; but I am facing some signal issues. The dish is correctly aligned and securely mounted.

I have checked the LNB and it seems to be in good condition. The coaxial cable is new and securely connected to both the dish and the Freesat box. I have done a factory reset on the Freesat box and rescanned for channels.

Even after all this; the signal quality and strength seem to be fluctuating; leading to frequent pixelation and sometimes complete loss of channels. I have referred https://www.satellites.co.uk/forums/freesat-digital-tv-support-forum.603-rpa documentation guide but still need help .



Has anyone else experienced similar issues? Are there any specific settings / troubleshooting steps I might be missing?



Any advice would be greatly appreciated!:-applause

Your profile says you are in India & your ip address resolves to India as well. If you are in India then you are wasting our time. If you arent in India then your profile is deliberately incorrect..... As a technical forum we do ask that profile information is accurate.
