The Mossel Bay problem: wind knocking dishes off target
A satellite dish only needs to move a few millimetres to lose signal. Strong gusts slowly loosen bolts and brackets, and after a big windy spell, whole streets can end up with 'no signal' errors.
For Mossel Bay homes, we pay close attention to the condition and placement of the bracket. A strong signal on the day of installation is not enough if an exposed mount can flex in the next coastal gust. Hardware, cable entries and outdoor joints are checked together.

Common DSTV problems in Mossel Bay
Rust on brackets and fasteners
Coastal exposure weakens older hardware and can allow the dish angle to change.
Salt-damaged LNB connections
Corrosion around the dish can create an intermittent fault even when alignment looks correct.
- Re-align the dish with a signal meter for full strength
- Replace worn, rusted or undersized brackets with heavy-duty mounts
- Tighten and lock every bolt so the dish holds position
- Swap out salt-damaged LNBs and connectors where needed
