Intermittent signal on 119

For the past couple of weeks, I've had intermittent signal loss from the 119 satellite. (I have an 811 connected to a Dish 500 in Seattle).

This happens on both clear and rainy days, day or nite. The picture will pixelate, then the satellite search screen comes up. Sometimes, the picture will return within seconds; other times it takes several minutes for the complete satellite refresh cycle. There doesn't appear to be any pattern to when this happens. I can watch a channel for hours, and then have it disappear repeatedly for a half hour or longer.

My dish is looking at both 110 and 119, but I don't seem to have problems with the channels that are fed from the 110.

The installation has worked fine for more than two years - until now. Any suggestions on what to do?
 

White line near top of picture?

New Channelmaster 4228, good Idea?
