Same here in Alabama. Complete signal loss has now switched to Partial loss?? Phones busy also?
Partial Loss just means that 110/119 are still available.
No point in wasting time on the phone after seeing this thread. There is nothing you can do.
On another note, my 90-year-old grandmother was wondering on the phone why her tv wasn't as "clear" when I told her the workaround (switch to SD.) I was pretty surprised, never really thought she could tell the difference.

I am glad that I am on EA. That really sucks for everyone that has no HD channels!

hell I can't even watch DVR events and 140 or ESPN is black....I had to restart machine to get ESPN to come up and whats even more odd is ESPN is showing on 129 when I check it with the view button.
Run check switch on each of your receivers. That way you will at least be able to watch everything on 110 and 119 without the loss signal notices. Then keep checking back here to see when 129 is up again. At that point re-run the check switches to add back in 129.
Ditto! I spent an hour swapping cables and looking at my 508 then came here and said damn.
ESPN is on 110. Try pressing GUIDE, CANCEL, then INFO twice, while being on ESPN.
Yep. http://www.satelliteguys.us/showthread.php?t=266222
Overall I'd say EA has had a bit more problems than WA in general.
Looks like DISH removed all the 129 channels from the guide anyway, except maybe for locals. No point in running a Check Switch IMO.
508 shouldn't have been affected as it can't even get but maybe 1 channel on 129. Unless you're in specific DMAs.
I noticed it first because ESPN2 was gone from my channel guide. All the rest of the 129’s are at least in my guide.
I had 110 and 119 here until my receiver rebooted on it's own and now all I have here in Va is 110...seems to be going backward

Yep. But it wasn't as bad as this. Seems like Dish has had alot of bad luck lately.

ohh its not a big concern..just funny how it did.. most of my other channels don't even show up in the guide now cause of this, 144 is just gone or espn2.
This is 1 of the reason I have not switched to HD yet. Too many problems with HD receivers, AKA 722, I do not need the headaches of Dishes HD.
