Not that kind of Sky....

Anyone had problems with snowfall and Sky reception, bit of snow in Essex tonight and tv died 10 mins before top gear came on, sods law!

Still not come back on...

It's snowing hard here in Oxfordshire, my Sky has been working fine and Amy Macdonald was stunning!!!!

I have found in the past that of snow sticks to the dish the reception dies off, I also find that it struggles at times in heavy rain, it could be water on the dish or the singnal having a job to get through the falling rain or snow.

Loving the snow again though, so glad I managed to get some good winter tyres

Same happened to me and im in Essex. Waited forever for it to come on but no joy. When it did start working it was freezing like mad

This is one advantage of a low mounted dish - you can simply tap the accumulated snow from it and all is well again.......well, until it builds up again!

Not so easy if it was a chimney mounted dish!
