Dead or alive?
The classical view is focused on the cat but, given it's a thought experiment...

Just edging slightly back on target, briefly, has anyone had so much snow coverage that it has affected their satellite reception?
Just I wondered how bad the snowfall has to get to do this? Particularly airborne but lying too (build up on dish and/or lnb)

my phone has nearly exploded with people phoning and sending messages, even on facebook lol, ive just told everyone spray the dish with water and dont contact me for a week
itll be fine, untill the water on the dish thats moved the snow, freezes, and distorts the reflective curve of the dish
mines plastered in snow, ive probably got no signal, but as i dont watch telly, ive not even noticed lol

Thanks for the replies guys.
I guess it must not be a serious issue otherwise there would be more takers? Just thought the airborne snow would have been dense enough to cause a reduction/loss of signal somewhere of late?

Just thinking this morning about what a great job the grit men have done on the main roads so far. Last year everywhere was covered in snow. Great job all you grit men at last some value for money. What are the main roads like near everyone else?.
All clear in these parts...

my back garden
not a bad sight to wake up to, is it?
on the down side, I see our modern cameras still cant take a properly exposed picture of a snow scene.
In the past
nopity you just opened up by a couple of f-stops, but with "idiot proof" modern automatics, this usually means having to faff about delving through menus to override the aperture.
You need to take it in RAW format.
Have a look in the bargain basement section mate it might be of some use to you. :whistle:

indeed so.In the past
I do that, even now, with this modern gear.
but i make sure you can do this sort of thing, with a camera, before i consider buying it. (however cheap it may be.)
which will have absolutely no effect on the problem.
what you get is a higher resolution, but still badly exposed, picture!
phew.
its gona take you ages to snort that lot.
never mind paying for it!!!!!!!
lol
