Something blocking the satellite signal ie a bird perching on the dish arm

 

Some kind of electrical interference that is on a timer

Does it coincide with switching on something electrical, or central heating boiler firing up, fridge/freezer compressor starting? Birds sitting on the arm of the dish? Street lamp turning on?

If you've only had Sky a few months it's unlikely that you've got Sky+ (where you've posted)
