Twin lnb and single

[camel]

If you are only using one TV in the caravan why use a twin LNB, did you use a meter to tune your dish in,

How old is the twin LNB? If it's about 10 years old or more it was designed for analogue tv reception, but that has since been switched off and everything has gone digital.

Newbie here. Hi all. Ive just set uo my sky from home in the caravan. Ive got it working on single lnb, i get most channels but not all. Any ideas? . The twin lnb will not work at all . Ive changed the settings in services to single and back again but no luck. Id be happy just to get all channels with single but am wondering why the 2 twin lnb.s ive tried wont work. Any help please.

Two possibilities:
Your LNB is not correctly aligned - skew and tilt are the usual culprits;
If you are using a Sky box that has not be used/powered up for a while just leave it switched on and the missing channels will arrive within the next 48 hours - usually much less.

For the dual LNB, have a look at the signal strengths in the setup menu - they should be the same. If one is working and the other isn't try swapping the cables on the box or the LNB (not both) and see if the worker moves. If it does move you have a cable fault; if it doesn't move you have a faulty LNB.
