Loosing connection to one aerial connection

[Bob Moore]

I have a problem with my foxsat dvr which has recently occurred.

It losses one of the satellite feeds.
I have tried a factory reset and the second channel returns. It then disappears some time later.
I have checked the aerial connections and tried several retunes.

I would be grateful if someone could suggest what could be causing the problem and suggest a fix.

Thanks

I suggest swapping over the two satellite connections on the back of the Foxsat. If the problem changes to the other input then it is the LNB at fault, if it stays on the same one then it is a Foxsat problem. This assumes you know which input goes missing, rather than just one of them is missing.

then it is the LNB at fault,

Or water in the cable or corrosion etc.
I know where my money would be.

Fair point, that's at least as likely as an LNB issue.

Thanks.
The previous suggestion could provide an answer
