as in Picture Breaking and Sound cracking??...

Could be Dish allignment..

If you have our HD box. put the channel on screen 1st, then go to system settings and signal test and check for the ammount of signal quality showing. should be 2 thirds full, and no lower then Quarter.
Pm me if you wish as im a Sky Tech  :happy2:

Has this just started or been ongoing?

Are you refering to the Signal quality Bar and not signal strenght ? as the strenght bar is insignificant.

Do u have multiroom? are any other boxes showing same signs?

Steve you sent that PM to me by mistake.  Here it is.  :confused:


Hi Garrard we get this problem quite a lot and it cant be fixed,   :sad1: basically because Sky is Pooh!
My advice is to go with Virgin even if it means digging up your front path.  :happy2:
