Remember that satellite has an odd skew, which may be causing your issue.
Are you thinking about 103w? 72w that he asked about (thread title) doesn't have an odd skew. I'm at work now and can't check, but it worked fine yesterday.
Odd skew on 72.0°W?Remember that satellite has an odd skew, which may be causing your issue.
AMC 1 @ 103.0°W is the one with the odd skew, not AMC 6 at 72.0°W.
I am going out to check connections etc. just in case.The other channel on the sat has a 72% strength. I did try to fine tune , to be sure , but it is right on. They were working fine last week. I did try the openbox , complete with different cables . Same thing.

The signal is lower. I have a 30" dish on a motor and can usually get NBC at 70%. My normal quality on most channels is 98%. NBC mux has been in the 40% range for me lately. My threshold is 50% anything less and the signal comes and goes. I'm thinking of getting a bigger dish just to park it on that bird.
I've been having trouble with the NBC Mux for the last month. It seems to me the signal hasn't been as strong.
Something odd is going on with the NBC channels on 72W. I was watching the NBC nightly news the other day with about 75% signal strength, and then when the program went off, the signal went below the threshold so that I couldn't watch anything on that channel.
Suddenly all went well for a while , and , today , with a 60% quality I had pixilating again. Seems to be an ongoing problem . I have never had a problem with a 60% signal before.? I have ruled out aiming as a problem . Anyone else having issues
Same problem here recently with 72w Ku NBC mux. Intermittent slightly weaker signal (50 - 60 Q) with pixelation and drop outs. Another FTA channel on different transponder comes in strong at 72 or better Q.
Thinking of re-aiming this dish to 103w for the NBC HD feeds.
76cm Winegard dish, JSC321 LNBF, and S10 receiver.
