Ours has gone in Bellapais. Been off since lunchtime. No Sat signal. The usual 'fixes' haven't worked. Anyone else off ? Maybe just us, but tried all the cables/connections/LNB etc & option to re-install new channels. Still no joy. Thanks

We have sky and fortuneately it has been on all day. Have you tried turning eberything off and leaving for a couple of minutes and then turn on again. If all else fail Iceman could probably help but not in time for England game tomorrow!

what type/size dish is it?

if the LNB is a quad C120 type,it is possible an insect might be blocking your signal in the feedhorn

try your service button and see if your lnb is getting a signal



my 1.8 dish requires a transponder code of 12.207 you mighthave gone back to old transponder 11.158 or whatever it was.

just be a knocked out transponder setting
