[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 1101742, member: 175144"] Anything added to a cable run from the dish (including the fitting of a wallplate ) is going to cause some loss, if not the whole band then at particular frequencies. It may not even be down to the mechanical fit, but the electrolysis that occurs from the mismatch of metals in the connectors. I have been called out to many SkyQ systems where the installer has either extended the cables to a different location for the box, or 'inadvertently' forgotten to pull down the shroud of the LNB, moisture creeps in over a short period of time and then channels start going missing.
