On thursday/friday I wasnt around and my boys gave it a shake and that was the end of the wire!!
Ive now drilled a whole from the upstairs bedroom right by the sky dish and attached a cable to the sky dish and fixed it to the back of the sky unit but still getting error message 29 that no signal is being received. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? I am using an old tv arial cable, brown in colour, but it has copper mesh and everything.
Sky want me to subscribe to another contract before they can help  Last resort before I admit defeat and give them a call... |
Yeah wrong cable mate. Look on ebay you`ll find loads of it on sale and cheap too. Failing that ring sky and threaten to leave for virgin,they`ll send a guy round in no time,and fix it for free!
