Sky problems?
Anyone else having issues with their Sky reception tonight?
Mine isn't working at all although the power light is on and all cables are in right places....could it be the weather? it's a new Skyplus box, well 6 months old so I can't imagine it's goosed already.

Re: Sky problems?
it will be the heavy rain Lindsay. Sky do insist on fitting the smaller zone 1 dish around here, its ok 'til you get bad weather then you wish you had a zone 2 dish instead.

Re: Sky problems?
Glad it's not just me ! It was fine last night and was happily recording "Supersizers" on Tues so I didn't think it was the box !

Re: Sky problems?
Our's is working fine. Have you tried pulling the plug out, leaving it for 20 seconds then plug it back in.
That ususally works for us.
