For the past couple of days my Sky has been displaying this message. I have checked all the cabling and connections and they are fine?

Does anyone know why I would be getting this?

Or if that doesn't work then your dish has come out of alignment with the satellite :P

I've had this also a lot over the past few days, for different reasons.

*My Card wasn't correctly inserted - normally they used to display the "Make sure your Sky Viewing Card is inserted" message, but don't now for some reason.

*Satellite wire wasn't connected to the box.

*Severe Weather - rain/thunder/heat also.
