    No Signal - but different icon?

    Box just gone off (sky5s) normally when it goes, its the green scrambled icon
    this time its different and its blue, and signal gone to 5% - no bloody signal

    box has been fine for ages

    any clues where to start?
    chance the heavy snow has anything to do with the sky dish?

              Why? some us might not have have the vast amount of knowledge that you possess. Maybe i need to stop in a bit more and do some reading

              for the rest that replied, thanks. I checked all the cables this morning as it still wasnt working. reset the box and its working. seems strange as i was still getting signal from the sky dish on another box i use for freeview
