Always worth a switch off/on

I have had this if there is a collection of snow on dish..... Always worth switching off for a few minutes and seeing If this works.

Really? A box issue? Other channels work but not Sky ones? That is an odd fault

Edit. As i typed this it has just come back

Okay thanks. I will give it a good scraping

Actually a good tip to clear snow from your dish, especially if its high up is to aim a hosepipe at it. Clears it quickly without balancing on ladders.

Had the same problem Sunday whilst watching the football. 'twas snow on the dish.

I can reach it with my hand out the window. Thanks though

SKY is working fine but what sort of camera is being used for the Villa game? It's like a highlights video.
