Send your details and we come back to you with pricing and the earliest available slot. ['Signal problems are measurable. Rather than replacing parts and hoping, we measure signal strength, signal quality and bit error rate at the decoder and at the dish to see exactly where the loss is happening.', 'That approach fixes the recurring faults other callouts miss, including the ones that only appear in wind, heat or rain.'] Rain fade is worse when your installation has little margin to start with: a slightly misaligned dish, a tired LNB or a wet connector. Restoring margin at the dish usually keeps you on air through normal Highveld thunderstorms. Painters, roof repairs, solar panel installations and new walls frequently knock the dish or block line of sight. We re-aim, re-secure and re-test so the fix holds. When only one room loses signal, the fault is almost always in the multiswitch, the cable to that room or a connector behind the wall plate. We trace it line by line.
Fault finding
FAQs
The most common causes are dish misalignment, a degraded LNB, water in a connector, damaged cable or an obstruction that has grown or been built in the signal path. Yes. Rain-only faults mean your installation has very little signal margin. Realignment, a new LNB and sealed connectors normally solve it. In most of Gauteng, Mpumalanga and Limpopo a standard dish is sufficient. In a few marginal spots a larger dish helps and we will tell you if that applies to you.
New dish and decoder installations done neatly, aligned properly and tested on every channel before we leave. Move up to Explora, Explora Ultra, streaming or a multi-room setup without losing your existing installation.
