Default Quick fix for Sky interrupted by birds?

Well, inspired by Paul's thread about DIY, I thought I'd ask the .Org's wisdom on this one.

Right now, I'm sitting here with the TV reporting "No satellite signal is being recieved." I'm putting money on it that one of the local birds is sitting on the LNB arm again (same species of bird the last week or so - possibly the same bird infact).

I don't really want to start supergluing things to the LNB arm (especially metal spikes as they could interfere with the signal too). I could get all high tech & detect the current drop, then do some sort of sonic output. But that's too much effort.

I could just go open the back door & use a broom handle, but I'm fed up of doing that.

So, anyone got any quick fixes (other than loading the bird table up more everyday)?
