Most LNB's would have a gain of about 60 dB, So I would guess that
+23dBm to +26dBm was the signal level going into the HackRF One with a
maximum safe input across the entire spectrum of -5dBm (LNA on) [
https://github.com/mossmann/hackrf/wiki/HackRF-One#receive-power ]. Best
to leave the LNA off at all times, unless you have checked the entire
spectrum is not going to damage it. Someone already damaged theirs
HackRF One by using a 5W handheld held an inch from it.

Most likely, U13 needs to be replaced.  It's an MGA-81563-TR1G.
