    I've got 69-70% on the Coolsat 6000 right now and I'm watching it just fine here.

    Sounds like like a switch may be dying?
    The Coolsat switch I got with my 5000 died in a similar fashion.

    Would switch for part of a second then go to port 1.

    I guess that's a possibility, but I'm not having any problems on any other sats. If the switch was bad, wouldn't it remain bad on any sat?
