Signal Problems

I am having problems with some of my sky channels on my sky + box particularly Sports 1,3 and News and hardly get Sky Sports 2 at all and have retuned to an other channel for that one. Also Paramount Comedy 2 struggles but both its 1 and + 1 channels are ok.

Now this is happening most commonly in the morning and evenings and during the day I can get a patchy signal for some of them.


Now having researched this problem its seems it may be linked to a need to replace the power supply. Does that seem to be the answer? or is it a dish alignment issue?

Re: Signal Problems

Sounds more like LNB fault to me, do you have anything else connected to the LNB or any spare Sky boxes you can test it with?
