That's because I have one of the newer "standard" Sky LNB's[1] - they have a
dual LNB type arrangement with one pointing a 156 and one at 160 I think.
With the tone going it offsets to 156 so doesn't get anything.

[1]Apparently the Sky contractor should update them anytime they go to an
address with an old one. These also have a 10.75 LOF
