<p>Problem solved with a new lnb, cable and (improved) receiver. Delighted to say I got a signal straight away and did not have to re-calibrate. </p>
<p>Many thanks.</p>

<p>Thanks Willis.</p>
<p>I tried this and got the same result. Then I checked the LNB to find the plastic cover had perished and the LNB was exposed to the elements. When I removed the LNB the cable was frozen and that also broke off. </p>
<p>As a result I will be replacing both the cable and LNB tomorrow.</p>
<p>From what you say it also looks like I will need a new box as well. </p>
<p>I will update you as things progress. Thanks again for your help.</p>
