I lost my signal in 'heavy rain' called Sky on their rip of rate 'customer diservice number' they threatened to charge my £65, when I eventually got them to come for free they said it was tip top or made it worse on some occassions, I had about 7 engineers (refuse lid technicians or whatever they call themselves) because I wasnt happy with the disgraceful job they made of the install either, they seemed to treat me worse because I had the cheek to complain.
The only solution was to get a Independant in who did a proper job........but the picture still went in heavy rain (numerous factors can lead to a signal not being 100% even on a perfect install, namely the method of transmission), but at least it looked decent.
In the end I cut my losses with Sky and moved to ntl........much better as I dont really go for bells and whistles and countless special interest channels, I just wanted TV that was likely to be there when I wanted It.
I havent lost my ntl service on TV for over a year now, and its been a good 6 months since the Broadband went off. The biggest problem I had was getting it transferred to my new house, but I now have 3 months free tv and broadband for my troubles
