moved house at xmas and hooked in the dish on the house next door (which they dont use now) - all was fine. Over the last couple of weeks the trees have come out with their leaves and the signal has gone altogether now (bbc went first, then fx and after the weekend I have no signal strength/quality/lock at all).
I *think* it is a coincidence that I have just upgraded my hard disk to 1GB - but the box was unplugged for a couple of days while I did the copying and I know this can sometimes affect power supplies. I am going with the tree theory for now though.
Cant relocate the dish on the neighbours so gonna have to think about getting myself a new dish put up, needs to go on a very long pole though (existing one must be 12') - I reckon if it goes up on the other side to the current one we might get past the offending tree with a similar size pole. Any idea how much it costs to do this kind of thing? No new cables needed, just a new dish on a pole.
