I've once again lost some transponders on Nimiq 4 at the 82 slot. I had installed a 90cm dish last summer and was able to get 82 back in with all transponders but apparently during the last 2-3 weeks, some transponders on 82 disappeared. Does anyone know if something is going on - like maybe the satellite is being aimed more north (I'm in the NYC area.) or perhaps something else - before I go on my roof to try to tweak it?

Otherwise, maybe it's just time to go to StarChoice. :)
 
With the lack of any response here and nothing noted on the Canadian site either you may just need to adjust your dish a little. It is pretty rare for companies to adjust their satellite beam angles once they have them initially setup and are content with the setup.
 
Thanks a bunch for the responses! Well, having to adjust is a far better answer than no longer being able to receive and at least now I know that it won't be a futile attempt when I'm up there. :) (I really stink at aiming dishes, to be honest - LOL)
