Thanks JB38, yes it is just when on sky and not all the time. For example if i change the RF channel or just switch the sky box on and off it may be ok for a few hours but then just drops out again. The picture is fine. I have tried taking the arial out the back but again seems to drop out. I have tried the different spare RF channels as recommended by post code but still no permanent success. Any other recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks

malcolm: If when you say that the TV link doesnt work are you meaning the magic eye? because if its not lighting up then there has to be a broken connection, as the LED in the eye uses pure DC voltage from the Sky boxes RF2.

malcolm: Or of course a short circuit inside one of the connector plugs, as both of these faults will have exactly the same outcome.
