Hi. I moved into a property last year and have sky here using their existing dish and wiring. I noticed a few months back that I was only receiving signal on one of the channels and after inspecting the cable that runs through the garage and then into the living room one of the cables had a nick in it. Wasn't too much of a problem as the other one was working and was planning on running new coaxial shotgun at some point.
Now whoever I am getting no signal from either. The only thing that has changed is that some pigeons had nested behind the dish which have now left and I removed the next. However still 0 signal. I then ran a single length of new coaxial from all four different ports on the sky dish to my sky box and none of them picked up a signal.
Can anyone point me in the direction of what might be the problem? I don't know much about sky dishes but does the bit on the end ever fail? (I'm guessing its called a receiver of something. The part that catches the signal bouncing off the dish.)
Thanks.
