Signal is great on the 10' reflector but I have two sites that are having trouble with this TP using 8' dishes;
one uses a C2 and the other uses a an esx-421 LNBF. Both have been working great all winter and spring until about two weeks ago. Signal started fading and went to almost total signal loss. Playing with the FD and alignment helped but only a dB or two, not enough for a solid lock. No trees or foliage in the way.
Seems to affect all the TPs on 91. Even the CW feeds are only about 50%Q and have occasional breakups in the video. Get less than 40%Q on 3965 V when it does lock, an 8psk signal requires a much better signal to be stable.
Having both setups have the same issues at the same time is interesting. Has anyone else had issues with this satellite or noticed a drop on this particular TP?
Checking cabling etc and loss looks normal between the receiver and the LNBF connection. Both use Azbox ultras, I don't suspect a receiver issue, traded with mine to make sure at one site and no difference.
