OK took the cables out of both satellite receivers and checked for a short
in all four cables....none was found ....took off the old LNB and noticed
the radome had a crack in it and pushed my finder through it and found it
to be full of water.......fitted an identical new LNB and wired up one
receiver and switched on...no shocks....wired up the other receiver and
switched on...no shocks...... ....checked both receivers all channels now
working vertical and horizontal......so much for all your
theories.......ha ha

so the moral of this story is never listen to what a professional tells
you...tee hee ....or at least take it with a pinch of salt ........
