Another potential solution (worked for me). Unscrew connection into digibox
from dish, discover that the centre wire isnt making good contact, rectify,
replace.

I think that is covered by the mention of cable and splitters. It goes
without saying that any sort of bad connection can have all sorts of
side-effects.

I'm puzzled why
it went bad the second time, its not as if it gets any wear and tear on it.

Presumably it just wasn't made correctly in the first place. No sign
of corrosion on it, was there?

No, its perfectly OK in that respect, the best way I could describe it is as
if the centre wire has been pulled back over time, as if there was tension
on it (which there isnt)
