well, what do you know, the problem went away. Not sure if it's the switch swap/relocation or the receiver power outlet change. Thank all of you for making me a more knowledgeable Dish user.... note: i did see a problem today where i lost all 3 momentarily in the evening but came back quickly...

Well, tech came back. Swapped out the switch, move its location so it's not directly mounted under the roof, worry about heat problem. But didn't find problem with cable, he thinks. Still has "Feed" shown up on 118. He didn't think that's a problem, called around his colleagues as well even...

r10fret, thanks for the suggestion. The "advanced tech" on the phone suggested the same thing too. She didn't like the fact that i'm seeing "Feed" on 118 in the Check Switch page. So another tech is coming out tomorrow to check the entire cable run.....could take a while as they have to rerun...

like i suspected, the problem came back. 118 is again gone. I notice signal loss is more frequent from 3pm to 3am PST and much less from 3am to 3pm. Not sure why time of day makes a difference. This is even after the LNB swap. Weather can't be an issue, clear sky with no cloud today, rare...

well, like i suspected. the problem came back even after the LNB swap. 118 is again gone. How can it go from ~50 to 0? i notice in the log that i get most signal loss from 3pm to 3am (>20), and much fewer from 3am to 3pm (< 10)

Dish Tech came out and did find anything wrong. My channels also works now but i know they will go bad again because i notice that 118 will go from ~50 to 0 but can't convinced him. He did some adjustment and "repeak" 119/118. But the signal remains the same. Still notice that the switch details...

Thanks for the all the response. I finally relented and called Dish to come out and do adjustment and pay the tech fee (signed up for the insurance plan). Any advice on how much signal i should get for all 3? i'm getting around 60+ on 110 and 119 and 118 about 50'ish. I worry Tech might say it's...

update: Saw the Azimuth = 150, Elevation = 36, Skew = 82 ...strange thing was, this afternoon before 5pm pst, i notice that 118 has some signal ~49. i thought it resolves itself. but when i check again in the evening around 7pm, it's gone again. I was able to get these signals in Dec! Other...

thanks for reply. Sorry i'm newbie. not sure what "peaking" mean.

After signing up some international channels i noticed they were dropping out intermittently. Then i check the system info and noticed that sat 118 has red box with 'x'. Suspecting it's the cause of the problem. It sees 110 and 119 with ~60 signal strength. 118 has nothing. But when i check the...
