i have the sky engineer baffled .... new installation and the signal is good and quality is good (all tested at the dish and output near the box) but on certain channels it breaks up .
If you check the signal strenth signal 1 has gone but signal 2 is fine . Even if you swap the feeds over on the box signal 1 drops every time .... Lnb swapped and sky box swapped and now just waiting for a new sky card to try :-)
The cable is one i fitted a few years back as its hidden in the coving ect but its proper shielded cable and as i said it's tested ok at the fly leads to the sky box
it just breaks up or "no signal" on certain music and film channels .
any pointers would be great

andy: hi JB

signal strengths ar pretty even at about 75% on both feeds.
they stay balanced when trying both leads into feed 1 and into feed 2 .... quality is 95% .
but soon as you go onto say channel 321 , 322 and some others it breaks up and signal 2 goes to zero ( signal 2 is the primary feed)
the only thing i can think of trying next is new cable in the loft as there is a connection( with correct connectors and sealed with tape) and a new twin outlet in the wall to the sky box
