    Hello,
    I have a Dektor NC plus probably an evobox 4k with a connected disk.
    Today, after yesterday`s storm, I get the message "short circuit at the sat1 antenna input". I have two antennas (one regular, the other nc) and the second one shows OK and detects, the first one, i.e. from the digit, shows an LNB short circuit. What should I do? I`m new to these matters, disconnecting cables etc. does not help

    Disconnecting the cables from what?
    From the antenna - it`s a short circuit in the cable, quick repair; from the decoder - damaged decoder.

    means? I don`t understand :P what I meant was that I disconnected the cables from the decoder and plugged it back in and still the same thing.

    edits:

    Ok, it looks like the decoder is ok, it sees sat1 and sat2 when I connect it with one cable. It is the second cable that causes this problem. How to fix it?

    LNB is something to which cables are connected to the antenna. An LNB usually has two inputs, it is like two receivers in one housing.
    So either the LNB is damaged (on one input), or the wind damaged the cable at the antenna.
    So, one way or another, you won`t need a professional to fix it.

    it was a short circuit at the sat1 antenna input. When I replaced it, sat2 appeared. I repaired the tip, it was fine, but now it popped out again, this time sat2.

    yes it was a short circuit lnb. When I changed it, it turned around. I bought a new tip, cut the cable, and installed a new one. Unfortunately, after 2 weeks the same thing happens again :/ What to do?

    Well, if the converter shorts and you didn`t do anything when installing the F plug, replace the converter. I`d like to see a photo of you earning those F`s.

    no, it didn`t turn around after all. When I changed the tip, it was ok for a month. There was a short circuit again on the same cable
