Any got problems with just a few channels?
 

I seem to have a weird problem at the moment in that I can not receive a
few channels, I get the "No Satellite signal" error message on them.

It's been going on for only a day or so and some channels are fine, and
some give the error message?

What could the problem be?

cheers

I had the same problem on Bravo, Uk Living etc. It turned out to be my
radar speed detector in my car.

Is it at certain times? I.E. when your neighbour gets home from work?

My BT DECT phone affects some channels too - when I switch it off at the
mains all is OK.

No
It seems to be all the time now, took my box to a neighbours house and
got the same result,........ I think the low frequency switching has
gone on the box!
Anyone know where I can get a new cheap box?

cheers

What kind of box is it ?

I had similar probs on my Sony 750.

Sky advice was:
Go to Hidden menu, - Services 4,0,1, select.
Turn off LNB voltage.
Remove Coax.
Put it back in again.
Turn LNB on again.

And it seemed to work. Might be worth a try. ?
