Sky HD no signal   
Hi Guys

I have Sky HD and my box keeps going off.

It can be often or it may be 6 days no problem.

When it is rebooted ( which it needs 75% of the times it goes off) it 
sometimes comes on with the message 'no satellite signal' and the number 29.

This is a problem  when this happens.  I got it working once by turning off 
the LNB and turning it on again as suggested by SKY from the service menu.

Last night it was having none of it and only a 15 min unplug would get it 
going again.

Any body know what is the real problem?

Is it the LNB causing the box to trip ?
or
Is it the box causing the LNB to be messed up ?
or
Is it the box causing the box to have problems and the LNB is OK?
or
None of the above?

Anybody know  what the error codes mean  apparently there are 35 of them?

Gary

It *might* be the capacitors in the PSU starting to go home:-
