    Cable may look fine but could be damaged/joined badly somewhere along it's run.

    What does your meter tell you about the problem frequencies?

    Dodgy cable or connections can 'take out' specific frequencies while leaving others relatively unaffected.

    Did this box/dish setup work properly at any stage?
