Weak signal

All of a sudden my cw800 is showing weak signal. I have not changed any of my settings. my lnb has not moved. I can go to antanna settings and i have great signal and quality strenth, above 80%. When I exit out the signal and quality drops below 10%. I got out my old pansat box and it works great! This is on the DN only, the BEV is working great. I am running the 1.83 fix. Is any body else having the same problem?

I know the 600p will ask you if you want to delete the current list before you scan.
