I think my LNB is dead

Jeb, do you actually watch programming on the 119 Sat ?
If no you can go with the SWM 3 version which sees the main 3 Sat locations. 99, 101 and 103.

Jeb! That's a new one. lol!

Yes I do. CGTN ch 2119 is a news channel (well, from China, so that is always taken into account. Like RT ch 321 being Russian) that I watch. It's always English. GolTV is usually English but lost most of the valuable stuff and hasn't been HD in years. I do watch some of the exclusive programming on ESPN Deportes or one of those channels like baseball.

I know it worked the night before I posted. When I watched some of the news that CGTN shows about the rest of the world, it was pixelating a little when it was clear. Perhaps a sign.

I should also mention that it's probably 4% of my viewing, but I do want it there!

Although you may want to spend a few more $$ and take the opportunity here to upgrade to a 5D2RB.

If not for anything else than having the current technology of a 21 max. tuner integrated DSWM multiswitch and future Reverse Band capability.

Good advice. Might as well future-proof.

Update: I got a new LNB. I ordered it before I saw the posts about the reverse band, so I just got the regular one. My roommate just snapped it on for me and the 119 even transpondered channels are back. I thought I would have to run a set up screen or something, but nope. Very simple. Thank you to everyone who diagnosed and helped with this issue.
