    hello , has everyones signal been ok tonight on their Sky+ Digibox ? - ours keep freezing, pixellating - I'm just putting it down to that its been lashing down outside most of the evening, but I just wanted to check if others Digiboxes are working OK?

    We have had rain before and its been fine - maybe its just the wind has knocked it a bit out of kilter - but in the settings on the signal meter , when the signal is there the bars are nice and high

    No problems here on my end.

    I get the same during very hard cloudburst.. It happened yesterday afternoon.. Normally I have strong signals but during heavy cloudburst it can degrade the signal causing pixellation or loss of signal

    Same problem in Galway yesterday evening watching the Golf, the rain at the time was monsoon like so I put it down to that, when it eased off picture was perfect

    The sky system is very robust against rain fade. In Sligo you should have a zone 2 dish. If it is the smaller zone 1 type you could have problems in the heavy rain.
