For the last few days USA (105) will go out for short periods of time. Both audio and video. No other channel seems to be doing that. Anyone else seeing this?

thanks

It's sun outage time and that may be the cause. Is it in the mid to late afternoon? My wife was commenting about the Hallmark channel doing the same thing the other day so I checked and it was Hallmark and HMN out for a few minutes and sure enough it was sun outage of the broadcast that Dish receives.
 
Will the screen turn black or does picture pixelate?

It goes black and no audio. if I pop the guide up it shows its on USA, just no picture or sound for relatively short periods of time (less than a couple minutes in general).

Yep, mid to late afternoon.

Yesterday (6Oct) at about 1.30 pm I lost HD on Fox News and a couple of others I checked, then lost all signal momentarily. No problems I am aware of before or since. I did use diagnostic app to check signal, sat 129 was 20, it seemed low to me but was green.
 

Frustrated with Hopper 1 and Ext HD
