I am having many dropouts or digital tearing on HDnet. I go to the signal strength and I am getting from42 to 50. My A And C Sat are solid 80 or above. I don’t get this type of dropout on any other channels. I was wondering if there is something I can do to remedy this. I live in Portland Oregon and was wondering if this is common in my region. I friend of mine has the same problem with HDnet
B Sat poor signal, what can I do

It is your tilt.
You need to go out and adjust the dish and use the tilt and elevation that the reciever setup or directv website says.
I would guess that right now your elevation is a couple degrees high and your tilt is closer to 90 than it should be.
HBO HD, HdNet both use the 119 sat B. Since your tilt is off and SAT B is the last one down on the line, the incorrect alignment is causing the signal to be bad. A slight movement in the tilt and elevation should give you good results.

Yeah, remounted today on that far end of the garage, get 95 on all three sats. I had the tilt way off initially. When i tuned for middle ground betwen A and C B was at 0.
Combonation of a clearler LOS as well as exact tilt / elevation readings got me great signal.
