Thanks jb38 for your response. The Satellite feeds go from the LNB to a Loft Box where they are terminated and distributed to two different rooms - so yes there is a break in the cable. My question was, to possibly eliminate the dish and cable/loft box was whether a satellite finder could be placed between the sky box and the outlet plate to confirm when the Sky signal is lost that the satellite feed is lost/reduced. Could I continue to use sky with this attached? Hopefully this may then clearly point to a sky box fault rather than dish/cable fault. Thanks

I have Sky HD and keep getting an intermittent fault 'no signal being received' error code 25. Phoned SKY, checked everything,software updated, swapped F connectors, Ok for a few hours then again no signal. Often powering off from the plug or resetting sky box temporarily fixes, but fault soon returns. When no signal message seen, I always check settings and it indicates zero signal quality/strength for both channels. I do run these cables through a loft box, which also sends normal aerial to TV, which shows terrestrial signal strength 95% at all times, even when sat signal lost. Would it be possible to connector a satellite finder between the sky box and the output plate and would this confirm that at times when the sky box says there is no signal that none is actually being received? Anything else I could check? Thanks.
