If a message displays “no satellite signal” it relates to your Sky Q box, so firstly check that the connections from the Sky dish going into the back of your Sky Q box are still finger tight. Otherwise it’s likely to be a dish alignment issue so check the troubleshooting in this link

It may then give you the opportunity to arrange an engineer to check the alignment of your dish. If it doesn’t you’ll need to contact Sky to book an engineer appointment.
If you are connected to a communal dish you need to liaise with your building management company / landlord who will have their approved engineers to contact.
Remember, a misalignment is not necessarily something that will be visible to the naked eye and could only affect one or two channels.

Re: Not getting satellite signal on some channels and pixilated scren on some
Do you have any trees near the satellite dish or in front of it has these can block the signal to the dish, I had to have my dish moved because of one tree blocking my signal, it started with just a few channels not getting a signal then as more and more leaves came on the tree the more channels I lost until they all went
