add diseqc, lost channels (SR 27500)

    Hi,
    I put up a second lnb for 19.2e on my freesat set up and aligned it with the receiver connected directly. SQ is typically 90%.

    Then I connected it via the diseqc and installed it in the house. SQ drops to around 80% and I have channels from both satellites, but I am also missing channels on both sats. Diseqc is switching between both ok.

    It could be a co-incidence, but the missing seem to have SR 27500 - I'm looking at you, Watty! It doesn't seem to be a transponder/beam issue.

    There is a long run (and diplexers) between the diseqc and the receiver, so going to test outside with a shorter run without diplexers next, but if anyone has any views, I'd appreciate it.

    Double check your F-connectors. A good test is to place a female-female barrell connector in place of the switch and then compare sig quality so your running a more controlled test over the same length of cable.

    If it's a faulty switch, then the symbol rate is irrelevant. The switch will either attenuate all frequencies or a range of frequencies.
