    Hi. I have a saorview combi box and all my free to air channels disappeared yesterday evening and are still gone. I get them thru my old sky dish and no one tampered with anything. I live in Louth. Did that happen to anyone else? How do I get them back? ?

    Dish moved perhaps or snow on the dish?

    Checked with neighbour ( she has sky but I assume it makes no difference as it is the same satellite being used) she has no problems. Did what you said and still no signal:|

    Dish out of line. ( Probably Rusted thru)
    LNB fault
    Water in coaxial cable
    Coaxial cable damaged or cut ( Dog Chewed )
    Possible faulty tuner in the Combi Box
    If your not technical minded then contact your local Legit Installer to have a look at it.

    Just to let you know. A part that's actually on the dish broke. The guy said he only seen this happen 2 other times. Replaced €50. Thanks for all your help
