Yes, I have a second Humax Receiver and, that too, has the same hit or miss channels.

One grievance, with not receiving the channels we once did and finding that other do, is that we all contributed €100 to the repair but, our equal investment has left us with an inequality.

I've installed and worked on satellite distribution systems both on land, on offshore oil and gas rigs, and moving vessels with tracking dishes, and providing for anything from a handful to 100 or more users so I fully accept that there can be unexpected and unwelcome nuances but every problem is solvable.
€2000 is not a small bill for a repair to a 20 or so user system and given the baseline of what was being received before I don't think it's at all unreasonable for them to expect to be put back to the same position they had been in - or better.
Leaving a system with a performance inferior to what it had been before whatever happened happened is unprofessional and not a satsfactory repair in my book.
