The Knysna problem: trees blocking the satellite
The satellite sits low in the northern sky. Tall trees and growing hedges slowly creep into the dish's line of sight, so signal gets weaker year after year until it cuts out completely — often worst in windy weather when branches move.
In Knysna, choosing the mounting position is often more important than simply mounting the dish as high as possible. We look at tree growth, moving branches, the slope of the property and a neat cable route before deciding where a stable long-term signal is most likely.

Common DSTV problems in Knysna
Damp or corroded connections
Forest and lagoon moisture can expose weak outdoor fittings and unsealed cable ends.
Difficult hillside mounting points
A dish placed for easy access rather than clear line of sight may never reach reliable quality.
- Survey your property to find a spot with a clear view of the satellite
- Relocate the dish — higher on the roof, on a pole mount or to another wall
- Run fresh, neatly clipped cable to the new position
- Re-align with a signal meter and confirm every channel
