Frikkin Wind R.E. sky signal

  1. Three times I've had a satellite bloke round . Symptoms are no picture due to high wind battering the dish, its happened again so I've rung him up and told him I want the dish replaced , like I told him last time.
    He's coming tomorrow , god it's a pain with no tele when the only way to receive it is through satellite .
    What gets me though is why cant I watch stuff on planner, its saved to my hard drive Shirley .
    Or on demand as that needs a working connection , yet nowt happens .
    The Phillips 3d tv I bought new for £1500 last year has an abomination of an online operating system , I think a PS4 is going to be an essential if this carries on .
     
  2. Hi Peter i'm a aerial & satellite engineer self employed own business. is the dish in a open position ? ie on a chimney etc ? can it be relocated to a sheltered position ? There are numerous types of bracket available. for mounting dishes in problem areas.
    Cheers Paul

  6. you have a ps4...

    you absolute bastard

    I havent :mad:
     
  7. Well technically he says one will be essential so I guess he hasn't yet....... Although your free to stand by at least part of your statement :)
     
  8. Have you got any trees in the vicinity of the dish? I had this and in windy weather they were getting blown into the signal area and affecting it, chopped some branches and no more trouble.
