I can't get some channels on my Sky+, mainly the BBC & ITV ones but also channel 5 & MTV, I have tried the restart box option and it worked at first but not now. I can still download from the channels I can't get on the catch up tv but can't watch live, all the other channels are fine, is there anything I can try to correct this ?

It says "there is a technical fault with this channel " and if I go to BBC the message says "your Sky+HD box isn't getting a satellite signal " I wouldn't have any other channels if I wasn't getting a signal would I ?

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out more"No Satellite Signal" is an error generated by your Sky box, it has nothing to do with broadband (Internet connectivity) and usually indicates an issue with one or more of the following:
You may have to call out a local satellite installer, unless you already have Sky Protect insurance, to check/fix your system, another option is to move to Sky Q, as during the move all issues will be resolved as part of the install, there is also the option of Sky Glass or Sky Stream, if you want to move away from satellite TV and use the Internet

I can't move to sky Q as I am in an apartment and when I asked the owners they wouldn't allow access to the dish so is the only way to call out a satellite engineer ?

If you 're connected to a communal dish, speak to your landlord or their managing agents.

Thank you for your replies, really appreciate them. I have booked an independent satellite engineer to come and look at it on Friday
