He has now either got to get the neighbour to cut the tree down (unlikely from what I have been told) or get the dish mounted on a pole and moved up.

Also, bear in mind, I have seen Sky boxes fail to get a signal when the cloud is too thick.
Might want to get him to check his signal strength first, we were getting that message with full signal strength for a while due to a failing LNB. If signal strength is poor though I would suggest a chainsaw
