Hi
I live in South Devon and I have a SKY+ (non HD) box with the larger size standard Sky dish that I setup myself.
The signal strength and quality is generally quite good but I'm frequently having problems with some channels in that I just can't receive them. This normally happens when there is something on that channel that I wish to watch.
The main problem channels include:
BBC 2
ITV
Channel 4
Five
BBC Three
Discovery Realtime
Discovery
Discovery Turbo
Animal Planet
At first I thought the problem was linked to the weather but it would appear not. During The Hotel which was aired on Channel 4 on Sundays about a Hotel in Torquay the picture would go at exactly 8:28pm every week. Coincidence perhaps but this makes me think that the problem is not a hardware fault but something wrong with the way I setup the dish.
Any help to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated as it is driving me nuts.
