Problem with TV? Sky? Aerial?

    Might be you sat dish is out of alignment - is it worse when it rains?

    This could be the case because yes, the signal is often lost when the weather is bad, but the house is very exposed as I'm on the top of a valley. Also wood pigeons tend to sit on the dish and aerial - could they have caused it?

    Do I need Sky for this problem, or just a general engineer?

    you might get away with having the dish and LNB re-aligned and/or cleaned, messy beasts birds IYSWIM ;) But it does sound like a minor re-alignment may be needed. An aerial/sat dish fitter should be able to do this quite cheap, get a few quotes from local bods.
