Hey guys,
I have searched the forums for this particular problem, could not find anything. Here is the problem:
Signal remains, quality drops to 0 on Echostar 8,x (110 bird) randomly. Powering LNB off and then on again fixes the problem.
Setup:
Elliptic dish, 3 LNBs - 1 (reg) for 110, 1 (uni) for 118.7,119 and 1 (reg) for 129. 4 way diseq sonicview switch, SV8K HD with 8psk module all brand new. (Getting HD fine on 129).
Nothing obstructing, I am looking into the skies (new construction, we dont even have any trees). When quality on 110 is available its at 95%+ so pointing is correct, cant be the wind either because LNB off and on works right away. There is no consistency for signal dissapearance: sometimes it doesnt happen for a few hours, then *bam* 3-4 times in a row. Signal is NOT lost while watching a channel, only when switching channels. I thought switch perhaps, but sometimes it happens when switching channels between Echostar's8 (110) channels, no necesseraily going off to a diff satellite.
Could it be related to "lost-signal" bin problems that are often described for SV8000?
Thanks in advance for any tips, and also thanks for reading this.
Regards,
