[QUOTE="img, post: 221867, member: 195794"] I have recently installed a 90 cm Solid Dish with Stab motor and twin LNB. Until recently it worked fine until I started losing reception (from both LNB connections) when raining, the reception returning when the weather dried up. Last week I re-insulated and tightened the F connectors at the LNB with amalgam tape, and waited for the wet weather to return. With the wet weather yesterday the problem returned. Looking at the dish after the rain had stopped but still no return of reception yet, I saw the dish face had water "globules" on it, so getting a cloth I climbed up and wiped it and the face of the LNB feed horn dry (the F connectors looked OK), the reception had returned when I checked the receiver. Is this the case of water ingress into the LNB or can a solid dish being "damp" cause loss of reception. This is puzzling me anyone any ideas [/QUOTE]
