john davies: The usual reason is that your signal is too strong. If you have a booster or amplifier remove it from your system and test again. It is the signal quality that matters, the signal strength should be around the 75% mark on most boxes/sets.

Briantist: In the newsbucket Guardian article, (Channel 4 and ITV challenge SKY on data it gleans from their shows), a Fru Hazlitt, managing director of commercial and online at ITV, said that the broadcaster "of course" supported Channel 4's view.

She then goes on to say, "Sky make most of their money because most people want to watch our free-to-air content". Does that mean then that if the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 moved off the SKY EPG, so they would only be available in the add channels list, SKY subscribers would ditch their SKY receivers and install Freesat receivers.

Sky have made, basically, a very profitable business out of selling things they don't own.
