Today where i am we've had a right good hiding with the wind and rain and my Sky hasn't lost signal or broken up , this may be because it's a communal dish and the housing association fitted a booster to it too.
Maybe VM use similar technology.
Yep, that could be a reason why.

I like the thought of a communal dish. Aren't these normally used for flats?

I think that they should use them more often to stop the proliferation of ugly satellite dishes, is there any technical reason why all the residents of one street couldn't use one for Sky or Freesat? The same thing could be said about aerials too.
