Tony, when are you back working? Sky would send "an engineer", but I would prefer to keep it local. I'm in Crumlin, so only five minutes away. I suspect the LNB, but I'm no expert. The cable looks OK, no big winds recently to shake it apart, unless the frost did some harm.

Tony, could you PM me if you could do anything?

Easy when you know how!
