That is what I also said; Dish cannot get corroded nor LNB unless it is of bad quality; if water and rain or sunshine can damage, they will no the used in the open; avoidance of TV in lightning is good because LNB can be damaged due to lightning as generating signals; I had used so for a cable, SUN direct, airtel and Jio ; I had removed airtel and Jio; and using sun direct and cable 2 +2 connections; I avoid using if there is heavy lightning; and in summer between 12 noon and 2 PM signal will become wavy; so i will switch to cable; if rain so heavy signal will become shaky so I switch over to cable; accidentally when I was refixing ny sun direct while shifting accidentally I gave him Jio dish and connected the sun cable which is working; the age of dish all the three are >2 decades; our carelessness of loosely threaded LNB will allow water to seep in; so it is better to check the cable and dish sturdiness periodically as we ourselves can see them . Good ones and well connected do not invite any trouble. LIKELY CAUSES ARE NOT MAIN CAUSES; also many service people named as Engineers are good for nothing except holding a screwdriver. KR IRS 151023

I like to add a little more details why it was replaced.* *I had a Tata play connection in my picture tube Sony TV in guest room. It was not recharged for about 3 months. Yesterday I recharged it, but new software was downloaded, and TV receiver showed mismatching with setup box. So a Tata play technician came on my reporting, he set right mismatching. Since signals were low, he went to dish, and while he was tuning for better reception, I asked him whether the corrosion of d2h dish could affect it’s reception. He said yes, and desired earliest replacement by d2h.* * So I called d2h for replacement of the dish. D2h technician came with a new dish and new receiver and replaced and tuned and in the TV, I could observe there was great change in picture quality in the TV receiver.* *Today there was a response from Mr Rajaram, whether microwave reception from satellite to dish could be affected by corrosion of dish.* *I just thought making a Google search* *Showing results for whether corrosion of the TV dish can affect the reception of signals* *The dish may be affected by corrosion or rain fade, which amplifies the effects of these sun outages.* *This is especially likely if your satellite dish is more than a few years' old and hasn't had its LNB (Low Noise Blocker) replaced during that time.* *Does a rusty satellite dish affect the signal?* *A satellite dish and its LNB need to be in good condition and not rusty**, bent or broken; this includes the metal rod that holds the LNB. Water can leak into the LNB if the dish is very old, affecting reception.* *I thought I may add these details, so that any of my friends may get benefited, if his dish is corroded, by replacing the same.* *Gopalakrishnan 15-10-23. * -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "iyer123" group.
