Hi all, thanks for your help.
Strange problem. All vertical channels on all satellites seem to have gone (although they come back occasionally). I swapped the LNB and no change. I thought maybe the skew on the lnb was out but trying various notches E and W didn't help.
Is there any chance the patch could cause this if it didn't install properly (I've redone the update with no change)? Just a thought.
Baffled.
