SKY stopped working...
...been working away this week, and when I got home last night I had no Sky reception
Had some work to do anyway so forgot about it, then went outside this morning for a look and...
My icicle is back, I had it last year too Although last year I could still watch telly, so I've gone out and snapped it off.

Re: SKY stopped working...
Been having the same problem but more just snow building up on the dish and then losing reception.
Luckily our dish is attached to the fence so easy to fix.
That is some icicle Mike!

Re: SKY stopped working...

Re: SKY stopped working...
My neigbour has his priorities right:
Best part was when he whacked it with the brush, a whole load of snow landed on him. I didn't laugh, honest........

Re: SKY stopped working...
You could just fix the gutter above it, to stop it dripping on the dish

Re: SKY stopped working...
funnily enough ................... my sky stopped too, figured it was just bad weather and left it at that.
It was only when my bird took some photo's of the zed outside in snow ........ looking at the photo's I noticed the sky dish was missing ....
An avalanche of snow off the roof must have taken it out lol, was buried under about 3 feet of snow.
Not much point getting them out till it stops snowing ........
