I have three receivers in my home. We had a storm a couple days ago and that is when I started having the problem. When I change channels I get a pause and the a message appears "No HD channel found, switching to SD channel". Then a second or two later I get the program. This never has happened before. Until this happened I have had no problem receiving HD channels. I have the same problem on all three receivers. I live in Texas (77331) and have a Western Antenna with a 1000.2 LNBf. Looking at the set up screens, I get nice strong signals on 110 and 119. I check the SWITCHES and the diagnostic's say Satellite input 1 ports 1,2, 3 are OK. Same for Satellite input 2 ports 1, 2, and 3, all OK. I don't know if I should get a signal on 129 or not but I don't get a signal. I own my own equipment and installed it myself a few years ago. No problem until two days ago. It's hard to believe three receivers could all have gone bad at the same time. I'm thinking the LNBf has a problem, but just guessing. I have reset, unplugged, you name it more times then I can count. The problem does not go away. I called DISH twice and get some idiot in India who apparently knows nothing but to follow a flow chart setting on his table. He had me un-plugging, plugging in a sending me reset signals. Nothing helped. So is it my LNBf? Am I supposed to and only use two satellites and two of the three antennas on the dish?
