does it happens to anyone else?? Every time I unplug my LNB from my Viewsat Xtreme receiver, I won't get any signal after I reconnect it. I have try to change the time and codes. But still no signals.
Can anyone help me about it?? Thank you

any time u unplug anything from the box its a good idea to shut it off from the back 1st or you will fry your lnb...switch....or more

I think nothing is burned since sometimes it will come back with full signal after I shut it down for a few hours. Thanks for reply JB.

If intermittent problem...then usually its

1...bad connections
2...bad cable
3...bad switch (they go often and should be weatherproofed-tupperware)

ALWAYS unplug receiver when connecting/disconectiong cable or switch...or u will blow a switch or LNB quickly!...most likely the switch!
