I have a sly minidish with a standard quad lnb, and its hooked up to my openbox s10 in my room and a sly digibox (not Sly+ or HD+) in the other room.
When they are both switched on I seem to get intermittent interference on both boxes like they are clashing with each other.
The sly digibox gets a random intermittent "no satellite signal is being received, pls unplug the box and plug back in, in 5 minutes blah blah" even though in the system menu the signal strength and quality are good and its locked......
and the openbox gets blocky pictures and glitches in sound even though the signal quality and strength are always good.
Some days though I get no issues at all with either box, wierd!!
I read that this is a common error with openboxes so I bought an inline slope amplifier but on the openbox the signal was up and down like crazy.
I tried it on the sly box and it seemed to have no effect on the signal strengths but made the no signal error more frequent.
I have a spare lnb feed in my room from the old sly+ not doing anything, is this any use to plug into the loop out on the s10 or will this damage the unit?
(I have tried this spare lnb in my s10 and get the same results as before).
Is there anything else I can try peeps? I'm like shakin stevens up a ladder so I'd have to get somebody in to look at it if I need a new LNB etc etc..
Thanks for any help
