Sky TV

any experiencing problems with Sky TV service lately?
We are....we get our Sky through a dish so maybe the dish needs adjustment, I dont know.....just thought I would check here first.
Problems are very poor colour (DVD is fine) and picture sometimes breaking up.

Ill be ur dish, moved in the winds. Go to settings and check your signal strength.

As zuroph said, it'll be the winds causing it. Parents had sky and any time there was a heavy rain or winds the picture started breaking up.

I realise this mighn't be the place to discuss this but seen as i'm from limerick feck it.:p

Does anyone know if you can move either itv/utv from the other channels section into the all channels section in the TV guide?

I know its a stupid question put it really annoys me that you cant see the programme listings for the channels on Sky.

there's a thread ongoing on the satellite forum on here, about how to do just that. you need a very specific box, and need to get a card to "trick" the box into moving it onto the listings for you.

Heavy rain showers usually put mine on the blink, strong winds don't normally affect it funnily enough (although last nights winds were probably an exception)

Getting calls all week due to the bad weather, impossible to get onto some roofs due to the dangerious winds out there.
