My satellite signal has been great since installed in Dec. In recent months signal has deteriorated and no "no signal". This is on receiver in TV and PC so points to a dish problem. Spent all day rewiring new cable and connectors and using a compass and sat finder to realign dish many times. No luck. Finally worked out the trees 2 doors down have growth and now have leaves so probably blocking signal. Nowhere to re-site dish so im not sure where to go now (PS neighbours trees have a TPO so need planning permission to prune) any advice welcomed but main purpose of this comment is not to do what i did .... check signal line of sight before fiddling... :(
