terrible interference to signal

Does anyone know of any type of electrical eqiupment that can badly interfere with my Sky signal,I know it's not my sky box as the problem only occurs at night it varys from pixillation to complete loss of signal on all channels so from about 9-10 pm I have no signal at all or it is unwatchable!! Being a nightowl  it is very frustrating and I am also paying for multiroom which I am not receiving!! Can anyone help??

Is it interference? Or poor signal from the dish?

 

What do your signal strengths look like between those times (Services  > Settings > Signal)? How far across does the white part of all 4 bars go?

Speaking of birds: having them roosting can do that.

 

Also look for other time-specific issues: I once came across a satellite installation which had significant periodic disruption because the top of a boiler flue was close underneath the dish but only affected it when lit.

 

Within a property, a 'noisy' central heating pump on a timer or thermostat trigger can be a source of electrical interference.
