has the circular duct tape front coverage brought any improvement?

 

[rodscha]

Agreed!!

is it a C-band LNB

It's a normal KU LNB, with a plastic protection that has disintegrated with time and UV rays.

If you invert it on the clamp it could give another 15 years without mods.

there was a lot of water inside and everything was short-circuited, it's completely out of order

Dry it out and see if it kicks into life, many do.

if the LNB is installed 'upside down', the water rarely gets into the electrics (on the older designs)

Not really. You can also stand on your head. Geometrically that works just as well.
