Your LNB is almost certainly the problem. Originally my dish had exactly the same Sharp Dual-Throat LNB as you have there, originally installed by Sky. Some channels started dropping out during sunny days only to return at night. Eventually, it got much worse and I had almost no reception during the day. As you have found, MySky continues to work, but it seems they have a wider tuning range than Vu+ Duo, hence can cope with more LO drift. A Sky Tech.
