Yes in LA it's been a problem since this morning. Total signal loss for short periods of time. I'm wondering if something is messing with the spot beams etc?

Keeps happening to me too in Long Beach CA. Any ideas what's going on?

OMG, ok follow along. the storms in Cheyenne are what is affecting your signal because that is where your signal is uplinked from. It doesn't matter if there isn't a cloud in the sky where you live, if the signal can't go up, then there is no signal to come down to your dish

They are talking about thunderstorms at the uplink facility in Cheyenne, WY. If there are storms bad enough to cause issues at the uplink point, then that affects the satellites you get your signal from.

Hopefully there has been education passed on here.

Twice today in Ky.

Isn't there a backup uplink facility? Do they not switch to that when they see storms coming? How exactly does that work?
