both on so probably not the rx.????...not got any test equipment here

Surely there must be lots of experts on Sky in your trailer park?

Not a lot of use without an interpreter.

If the LNB supples the power to the cable a Sky expert isn't a lot of
use.

One of those Crystal danglers would be more appropriate, you know,
start a crystal swinging on a string.

Either that or prayer is good in such situations.

Daleks are still the most plausible really, they allow the laws of
physics to hold, no matter how unlikely the scenario.

Have you considered the possibility that a voltage originating in the
receiver might be connected to the wrong place by a fault in the LNB?


Through a coax cable?

Outer, Inner and one polarisation works anyway.

G4's came after people had to know what they were doing with RF.

That is priceless.
