Sky+ breaking up, can you swap LNB?

Hi,
All my Sky channels are breaking up and freezing now so am guessing the LNB is knackered (water etc..). Don't think it is my Sky+ box because I fitted my old Sky box to the same dish in the kitchen (since Sky+ dishes are a quad LNB) and that's breaking up as well?
Don't know how quad LNB works since it looks like any other dish with 1 arm. Does that mean it's 1 LNB with 4 feeds?
If so then I guess it means I'll have to replace the LNB which will be big bucks Sky call I suppose since it's out of warranty?
Any suggestions folks?

yes.. the LNB is one piece of equipment, with up to 4 feeds coming from it.
Could it be that the dish has moved slightly.
Don't call Sky for something simple like this, grab the old fashioned yellow pages, and get an independent guy out. There will be loads, and if it is the LNB, i'm sure they will charge less than sky will...
