Coastal corrosion
Salt air near Mossel Bay, Knysna and Plett corrodes connectors over time. It's one of the most common causes of intermittent signal we see.

No-Signal & Error Code Repairs questions
›What does E48-32 mean?
E48-32 means your decoder isn't receiving a signal from the dish. Common causes are a misaligned dish, a faulty LNB, or a damaged cable or connector.
›Can you come out tonight?
We're open 24 hours, 7 days a week. Call 060 881 1698 and we'll arrange a call-out as soon as possible.
›Why does my signal drop when it rains?
Heavy rain weakens satellite signal, and a slightly misaligned dish or worn connectors make it much worse. Proper alignment usually solves it.
