    My signal is breaking uo, mainly on BBC1 and Yesterday to name but 2. Has something changed? Would it help if I re-tuned the edison box? I am hoping it is something recent that has happened to everyone.
    I appreciate any of your comments and suggestion.
    Kind regards.
    Tom.

    Don't retune. If your signal is weakened it is probably more to do with the dish moving or being blocked. A retune will probably only lose what you have. Check there are no bushes or trees growing in front of the dish. It must have a clear view of the sky. Another possibility is the loose connections at the back of the box or on the dish. Water ingress or dish movement are other possibilities.

    Hello Gerry.
    Just a word to say thank you very very much for your advice which was bang on. The coax plug in the back of the Edison box was a bit loose and just needed to be screwed tight. All is now tickety boo, for which I am very thankful. You saved a pensioner a few bob. What a great forum.
    Kind regards.
    Tom.
