@angelwings123

UNFORTUNATELY THE SKY Q BOXES NEED A PERIODIC SIGNAL VIA THE SATELLITE

THEY WORK FOR A PERIOD UNTIL THE NEXT ONE IS DUE AND THEN THE BOX SHUTS DOWN IF IT DOESN'T GET ONE

YOU NEED THE SATELLITE SIGNAL BACK FOR ANYTHING ON THE BOX TO WORK

THE QUICKEST SOLUTION WOULD BE TO PAY A LOCAL FIRM TO MOVE THE DISH (IF PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE)

SKY MAY CHARGE AND MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE THAT SOON.

iT ALL DEPENDS WHEN THE AUTHORISATION SIGNAL IS DUE.

WE HAVE SEEN CASES OF STOP WORKING AFTER ONLY A COUPLE OF DAYS AND OTHERS OF SEVERAL WEEKS - LIKE YOURS.

i AM NOT SURE THE MAXIMUM TIME THEY WORK WITHOUT A SIGNAL BUT I THINK IT IS PROBABLY AROUND SIX WEEKS

AS @PandJ2020 SAYS IF THE SCAFFOLDING IS UP FOR A LOT LONGER YOU MAY WANT TO CONSIDER GETTING THE DISH MOVED IF POSSIBLE BUT IT MAY NOT BE WORTH IT.

YOU CAN WATCH ON A SKYGO APP BUT THAT MAY NOT BE SUITABLE IF YOU HAVE POOR EYESIGHT
