it was 60 below and I was busy with the Yukon Quest, the signal is coming and going, it's better than it was around Christmas, tho. Right now we have a very decent snowstorm going on. A soon as weather permits I will run some more testing with the new LNBs Iceberg sent. Dish network is just...

Don't you ever try that in 15below......... When I pick up hubby in Fairbanks in a couple weeks I'll have a long talk with Radio Shack, frankly I don't believe it's on my end. I was thinking about material fatigue etc but the weird thing is it occurs only at a certain time and only to people...

Wanna sell? Here's what happened yesterday: I was really getting frustrated about not being able to watch 'Criminal Minds' and stared at the 'lost signal' screen for about a minute or so when it came back on. Just like that. I switched to another 'lost' channel and again, after staring at the...

I had a look at that but it won't work. Thanks anyways.

The signal is strongest in the morning and goes down slowly. I thought about sun etc, but that does not make sense, I do have starband and when the sun and satellite line up it affects the signal but that is not the case with Dish Network, when they line up the signal is very strong. We are...

Update: Yesterday a guy from dish network from Anchorage called and told me they are looking into the possibility of a satellite anomaly. It was a little better for a few days but since 4-5 days we don't get no nothing no more and it's even worse down in the valley.

Nope, lost it again, guess the other day we just got lucky.

Yes, that's correct, well, it happened the day before yesterday. It's 6.20 right now and I'm about to turn on the tv to see what's happening at 6.45pm, the time we normally lose it.

What do you mean? I still have the old box sitting on the TV, with the smart card. And then I have the new part, the SW21, dish network mailed. The funny part is tho, I connected the SW21 to the box on the TV and the signal was low but stable and for the first time in weeks we did not lose the...

No, nobody has directv around here, what is part of the problem. And, with all due respect, hubby knows how to build a cabin, but for everything else I am the one.........That's why i asked for the satellite finder, there are guys around here who set up dishes before, we're pretty much on our...

I'm kinda at a loss, shall I go for a new, bigger dish, what would be advisable anyways, i would have somebody to get it up here from Anchorage, or shall i go with directv , it's not the money so much, it's the whole nine yards. Guess I will sleep over it. You guys are so helpful, thanks again...

On the box it says: LNBF dual digital 12.2 12.7ghz REMFG (SVC). Hubby is gone for three weeks - it's party time!!!!!!! - and tends more and more to directv. Is that LNB compatible with my 7 year old 3foot dish anyways? If not there is no sense in working outside in balmy 25below.

The only number I can find is BS1H1UP201M. And it has two lines, the old one has 1 line.

The LNB slides into the arm and I was wondering about the possibility to attach a bracket to the arm but couldn't find anything on websites. Thanks for the tip with the SF95. And another thing I was wondering, excuse my ignorance in those matters, the SW21 which I hooked up on the back of the...

OK, I hooked the new receiver up and did some switch tests and got it running and the first time we did not lose the signal, it was week but we kept it. So far so good, I got a new LNB in the mail and here's were new fun comes in, it is a 'Digital LNBF' and the mount does not fit. The old one...

That's what I told them but who am I...........

I certainly will stick around, I need to learn many things. Nobody here has directv yet, but that is why I want the technicians to come out here and see if it works, they told us it would.

Ok, here's an update: dishnetwork send a SW21, although it says so on the screen this part is useless for us since we do not have 2 dishes, and otherwise they insist it must be a problem on our side. This morning around 9.30 i checked the signal and TP 9 was coming in at 78, what is fantastic...

At this point we are so frustrated, no football for hubby past 7pm what makes it hard on me too............. directv sounds better and better, we just want our tv back. Again, thanks for all your help

The yeti sounds more like it, if it would be military there would be way more people affected. One of the affected switched LNB but it did not work, perhaps because it was an older LNB, too. And talking to dish network is more than frustrating, I'll wait for the new LNB and go from there. All...

Update: we were doing fine a couple of days but now it's worse than before, still waiting for the new LNB from dish network to be shipped. Since I do have starband I know of the weather problems were the signal comes from, but what still baffles me is the time, it;'s ALWAYS around 6.30-7pm when...

Friends shot the bear in their yard and I had to skin it. They keep the hide and I get the meat. Here are some more pics Hunting - alaskakreations

No, it's a gradual loss and I notified dish network about the possibility of a wobble. Thanks so much

One of the people had that LNB replaced and they are doing fine now, another is not here right now and another one relined the dish, get a signal about 65 but still lose and we still lose at 6.40pm - 6.50pm SHARP. I am corresponding with dish network via email, but what they told me so far is...
