BBC2 NI on Sky+

I just got my Sky+ box installed a couple of weeks ago. The day I got it
I set it up to record Horizon on BBC2. The next day I checked the
recording and the picture/sound was all pixelated and jerky - completely
unwatchable. I can get every other channel without any problems, its
just BBC2 NI that is faulty.

I called Sky and they went through the usual options in the menus on the
box but nothing worked. They sent an engineer yesterday and he couldnt
help. He suggestion was to tune into BBC2 England but this doesnt show
up in the Sky Guide so I cant schedule recordings on it.

The funny thing is I have another digibox in the house and it gets BBC2
NI without any problems.

Can anyone help?

Thanks
Shay

Assuming that BBC 2 NI is on Ch 102 for you, BBC 2 England should be
on Ch 959 ?

Sounds like the transponder that carries BBC 2 NI is not being picked up
properly by your dish. You may need to get it realigned.

BBC 2 NI shares its t/p with BBC 1 and 2 Wales and Scotland, along with
all BBC Radio except R2 and 4. You probably can't can't those either ?

Is that fed from the same dish ?
