Loosing 129 in hot weather

[svenharden]

I am researching a problem that i am having. In cool weather all of my channels work fine, but when the temp gets over 90 i have loss of signal issues. I checked the signal and my 129 has no signal. Any Ideas???

Welcome to SatelliteGuys! Sounds like you have an LNB going out, heat issues. Do you have the protection plan?

Yes it sounds like your 129 LNB has become temperature sensitive.

Been a common problem with the DP lnb's.

I've been losing signals from 129 as well and I'm now wondering if it is due to the hotter weather or leaves on trees. If I schedule a tech visit will there be a charge?

I live in the Tampa area and had this happen a few years back. The tech replaced the LNB and that took care of it.
