| | A download was forced when you plugged it back in. I agree, you will have this problem periodically if your dish is not aligned correctly. Also, any tall trees growing around your home that might block signals? |

Transponder - 7
Satellite - 110
Locked - echostar 110 west
Signal strenth - 43
What does all this mean?
I don't have any tall trees blocking the signal. The weather has been windy and rain lately and that's when my problem began. Up until last Thursday, I haven't had any issues with the signal at all. |

| | | Change the transponder to 15, using the remote. We need to know the signal of satellite 110 Transponder 15 |

What's the difference between transponder 7 to transponder 15? Like I mentioned in my previous post, I wanted to know what these mean. And is transponder 15 a default setting? |

| | | 14 15 16 21 are Conus or nation wide transponders these are the one dish network uses to check signal levels. 15 is the one i tend to use as an installer.

| | | I would also report what signal you are getting on 110 TP 20. That's the spotbeam where your locals come from. |

| | | You might want to connect a small off-air antenna as a back up for local channels. just a suggestion. Works well for me although I am not far from the antenna farm in Walnut Grove. |
