firstly check you cable and connections, if they are ok then could be a alignment issue. regards mdt

if it was off would the signal drop down on the scale to check or did they leave their lnb connection loose.

Its my multi room reciever my main room is fine and all cables are fine

Could be the bad weather.

Does it do this when the sky is clear and no heavy rain??

If 1 room is ok other is glitchy then that points towards either cabling or the box to me

My mate had same problem and it was because his neighbours conifers had grow and was messing with the signal he had to get the dish moved up his wall!! Now he has wrote them a letter to cut them down!! as he dosen't get on with them!!

Try your box from downstairs upstairs and see if its the box otherwise i dont no!!

ok thanks but been fine for years we get a bad reception due to large trees next to use anyway but had sky+ for years in my multi room with no issues apart from the reception in the summer with the leaves on the trees but only certain channels only since i put my sky+hd box in i have had this problem its not bad just so annoying

Ok could be 1 of 3 things 1 being the trees. Check that the connection is of at the back of your reciever unscrew the connector make sure the connector is on the cable ok this should be screwed on now connect back to the reciever and screw on hand tight not with a spanner, check this and see if it has made any difference. The 3rd thing is the LNB on the dish which is weakening the signal. If this persists phone sky up they will send an engineer out to sort the problem if they try to charge you say no you are the customer and they are not providing the service you pay for, this is not a technical problem this is a signal problem. Threaten them with cancelling your subscription they will soon send someone out to fix the proble.

i tried the cancel thing with sky and theu said ok then ill check the connection as main sky box is ok so not the trees causing it

thanks

Swap your HDMI's cables around with the other box, see if the problem follows the cable...

I had my first ever faulty HDMI cable yesterday, problem was doing my nut in as for hours I was checking everything else but the hdmi cable, it too was fairly new one.. When I finally realised I was like "well, burger me, faulty HDMI cable"
