    Signal disappears between 8pm and noon

    Not really in order to maintain orbit Satellites are continually flown to maintain position, the most common pattern is a figure 8 in an oblong box at the location. When peeking large dishes it is best done when the bird is in the centewre of the box. This is how ever not the case with a 18" dish.

    Repeatable SFSS

    The first basic thing all receivers must have a feed from either the dish or proper multi-switch. At this point the other receivers are piggy backing of the HD receiver. This is a sign of a bad switch or they are unable to get voltage or tone to the Dish/switch. Try unplugging all receivers in...

    rg59 ??

    The first thing user see usualy is loss of even transponder, this would happen on both 101 and 110 also. If it is just a signal loss the higher you go in transponders the more you are apt to see it. If you are just loosing signal on 119 Sat you may not be peaked or have a line of site issue to...

    Good Customer Service

    The TV guide is based on service off of the 101 Sat. From what I can tell. The majority of D* customer only have single LNB dishes.

    Need Receiver Recommendation

    The 490 RE is a ultimate, you can exchange for a referb at RCA and see if they have any waranty on the new one. Otherwise your only option is to change to a TIVO Model. If you can live without PIP or the internet then that is what I would do.

    Is a bigger dish better?

    If the dish is peaked to the maximum you should not have any problem. All dish have the potential of a rain faid but it will be kept to a minimum by maximizing the dish allignment.

    Pron since switching to triple LNB

    You are definatly losing signal, assuming that you installed the C-sat Kit correctly, 110 LNB combined with 18 Volt (even Transponders) you must have knocked your dish slightly out of alignment. Did you ever have SFSS on the 119 Sat. Things to check Ch 100 and 500, these are the even and odd...

    "Searching for Satellite signal" error message??

    Rebooting by pulling the plug on a receiver resets more then just the receiver, By unplugging it you also clear the LNB and or multiswitch. Many are looking into the Idea of a whole house reset, clear all voltage to LNBs and or multiswitches. In the phase lll dish the first receiver plugged in...

    Can't Phone Home

    I would plug a phone into that line and check for noise on the line. What may be important is did any thing change in Nov on your phone system or in your house any change even in Dec could have caused the problem. The unit is attemting to call just not connecting.

    "Searching for Satellite signal" error message??

    You can try and reboot the receiver by unplugging for 15 seconds. However I would be sure and check my Sat in Cable first, SFSS is a loss of signal. If your other receivers are working I would look at these two things first.

    Diplexer Problem

    On the Diplexer there are two paths, one has a solid line from input to output this is the side that goes to the Sat In the other goes to the Atenna In. Be sure you have a Di Plexer and not a standard splitter. There are some Satellite Slitters that will work again the solid line from in to out...
