Ian, you may have seen I had a similar problem last weekend. I forget your previous messages but have you tried switching off, pulling the power plugs out, taking a walk and then starting up again

There were queries a while back about Meteosat-5 data and I checked the WEFAX signal a couple of times. Once it was OK, another time pretty weak then strong again. I knew Meteosat-5 had a large
