I have an old SKY box which has been receiving free programming for many years now. Last night the message "no satellite signal is being received" popped up.
there was a strong wind outside and I assumed the dish had moved, and it had. after repairing the old mounting and realigning the dish I still have the message. all the ITV channels are fine but any attempt to view the rest brings back the error. ( the free religion channels are ok too).

Hello again, thanks for that, the signal strength is around 50% and quality around 80% (pretty much as good as it has ever been) I have BBC news all the ITV channels and Ch4 plus one but not CH4... :-( and 4 seven it is bizzare.. will have another look tomorrow

Thanks again jb,
I have redone the end at the LNB after noticing that it was a bit green. Yes I have done the usual disconnect an power up. Like I say I will play again tomorrow, subject to weather, I have checked again for proper alignment figures which I think should be 142 degrees 24 elevation and 15 degrees slew. it was a bit trial and error in the wind before so hope to get it sorted one way or the other tomorrow

JB38 All seems sorted now. it must have been an alignment issue, just wasn't quite there. a bit of a tweek and hey presto. That said my signal strength is still just over 50% but as I seem to remember it was never much more than that before .
Thanks for your assistance.

Regards
