Problem
Possible cause
suggested remedy
The picture sometimes
breaks up into ‘blocks’ .
(i) If you have other devices
connected to your dish,
there may not be enough
signal strength for the
set-up .
(ii) Objects such as trees or
houses may be affecting the
signal quality .
(iii) Faulty connectors or
leads may be affecting the
signal .
(iv) If the break-up is
temporary but often, there
may be interference caused
by other electrical items in
your home .
(i) Try connecting your satellite dish directly
to your set-top box . If this stops the picture
breaking up, then there is not enough signal
strength to use additional devices .
(ii) You may need to improve your satellite
dish installation – consult a professional
installation engineer .
(iii) Try new connectors/leads .
(iv) Consult a qualified electrician .
