Sky box

[James+Hoskins]

In the morning when I try to turn on the TV I get  the  "Blue circle " of my  sky box showing for around 3 minutes, once  this  has finished it takes a further 1 minute and 10 secs before the screen shows the programmes --but a message informs me ____waiting for scheduled programmes. This has beeen ongoing for more than six months --it is getting on my nerves. NO TV FOR OVER 4 MINUTES EVERY MORNING.

                                 I have tried everything to stop the "Blue circle" from showing and having to wait ---Press and hold the rewing etc etc----- HELP before it drives me to further madness.

What kind of Sky+ box is this? Do you have a Sky tv subscription? Can you record and playback recordings normally?
