[QUOTE="DishDick, post: 737569, member: 216974"] Hi Nano, Yes good guess Televes. Ralph, It’s a system I put in. All was fine until a few months ago when break up started at night. I ordered a new Sat meter and whilst waiting to get it I thought I would have a look at some of the multi switches that either failed or were faulty from new. Obviously there must have been a bad batch as on a number of multi switches 4th output didn’t work. This looks as if all three of these have bad soldering. Others will only show one band and polarity i.e. only HH. Unlikely that these will be fixable. No my worry was with the way the units were assembled with a conductive foam placed in the screening can, the same size as the panel separated by a non conducting sheet of tissue, Obviously if the tissue does not cover completely or gets damp it is possible for a shorting to occur. Also there is no room for air to circulate. Could someone point me in the direction of how I shrink my JPEGs as I can´t post my 2.53mb pics and I can´t remember how I shrink them to under 500KB.
