Is anyone having problems with fox series going off periodically? Mine goes off for about a minute or so at regular intervals and the only way to get it back is to change channels.

Same here



That said, it is only off for a few seconds which is better than the days/weeks that subscribers to 'Dopey' TV had to endure recently.

I have the 'Nilesat' free-to-air package, and occaisonally 'lose' channels for a few moments. My pet satellite man advised that 'atmospherics' could be the problem, but he did suggest checking the LMB on your dish - they do have a tendency to fry out here due to the heat, apparently. They are very cheap to replace (mine is only a single-output) so worth checking them out . My old one came with the house when I bought it three years ago, so I don't know how old it was, but when I replaced it, but the new one produced an immediate vast improvement.
