Steve Last Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 After being away 3 weeks we have just returned to N. Vaucluse (84) and find that our sat. picture which was OK before is now is breaking up a lot and "jittery" on all channels. Sound is fine and no error messages. Signal strength is showing as a solid grey band and signal quality as solid blue, but I don't have a manual for the box and can't recall what these should show (long time since I had to fool about with it!!). Before I start tinkering with anything, has there been any change in sat signal strength or anything else recently, and does anyone have or has had similar problems?Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clair Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Same occasional problem here (46 - Lot):thick black horizontal passing band jumping over the screen on all channels.We've put it down to a gradually degrading LNB unless someone with more knowledge (and that's easy enough!) can tell us otherwise...Solution (working so far): switch off box, remove card from slot and unplug box. After 2mn or so, plug in, switch on and follow the screen messages.Good luckClair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevehudson Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 "Signal strength is showing as a solid grey band and signal quality as solid blue"That's your problem. You should be reading at least 60% on the signal quality band, if it is blue you have none. Almost certainly a dish alignment problem.Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
