If the problem has been diagnosed to be specific to the receiver than it
must be serviced or replaced. Does the same effect happen when watching DVD
or VHS on the tele? If not then the sat box is probably the culprit.

Hi,
I have a Silvercrest SL65 satellite receiver, the one Lidl's sell regular,
german origin I believe. When first switched on it is fine, but after a
couple of minutes it will lose the red. Switching off and on will return
the red but only for another couple of minutes. If the receiver is left
on
the red come back and stay, and that is the way it been behaving a fair
while now.
I used to repair tv's along while back. But I still have a fair amount of
test equipment etc. What please could be this problem? I was thinking is
it
more like quartz crystal playing up?
Help needed and appreciated thank you.

David
