Hello,

Is it possible to repair a satellite dish LNB, and if so, how should one proceed?

Second question, how can we test the condition of an LNB?

Thank you all.

    Hello,
    Given the current price of LNBs, a repair is not justified.

    Hello Andy,

    I bought a new LNB a month ago to replace the old one that broke down for 17 euros.

    The new one broke down after a rain.

    So the price is not high, but if I have to replace it after every rain, which is not a rare phenomenon in Brittany...

    Invest a little more in a quality and well-known brand product or use protection, for example:

    Customer feedback on this protection is not very positive. It seems to become brittle after a while and has a wind catch.

    Above all, I don’t see how it protects the rear part of the LNB where moisture infiltration occurs on the wiring.

    Unfortunately, there’s no miracle solution; it’s certainly intended by the manufacturers...
