    Is the dish snowed up?

    Yeah sounds like the snow has got to it. It happens to mine sometimes, especially when its absolutely pouring rain. I usually fix this with a small sandwich over the receiver part at the dish. But on this occasion just clear the snow off and it should work.

    No there's no snow on it. It was snowed up on Saturday evening but we cleared it.

    Check what your signal strength and quality are like. If they're not above 70% then you wont get signal. The weight of the snow may have shifted the direction of the dish and this would have an effect on the signal being received.

    We've had no snow since Monday night and everything was ok earlier today.

    I'm all out of ideas then, I'll admit I'm not an expert in this area. I only know what I've experienced from my own dish and box. Hope you find the solution.
