A service technician is scheduled to be on site tomorrow. Is there anything I should specifically mention to him regarding this or just let him do his own thing after I tell him I'm simply missing some HD channels?

I'll try and get out there to check it with the level(s). The Satellites that shows as 0 in my testing; are there any that should be zeros or should I have high numbers for all transponders on all satellites?

It is vertical, yes. I'd have to grab a level to confirm absolute, but to the naked eye, yes.

Just checked the dish... elevation and tilt are set to what DTV suggests. I'm not sure how to read Azimuth on the dish so I don't know how to check that or adjust it.

Thanks for the replies so far guys. It is a pole mount. Interestingly enough, now one of the receivers is getting no HD channels(except locals, system test shows 42-089) while the other two are getting some and missing some. I'll check the alignment and report back.

Hi all, A couple of weeks ago, I started to notice that I was getting the "Searching for signal on SAT 2" message on my HR21. I assumed it was a weather issue because other HD channels came in fine. It's been two weeks later and I'm still getting that message on all 3 of my HD units and...

Thanks for the help guys... I wasn't able to take care of the issue prior to the technician arriving so I guess I'll end up eating that charge. He replaced my multiswitch to confirm my finding that the multiswitch was not the issue. He looked at the dish and replaced an LNB. All transponders...

Okay... so in order to test the cable I assume I need another cable to run, right? The cable goes quite some distance though, not sure if I have enough lying around. Is there a way to test the cable? I assume this involves the DMM mentioned earlier but I'm still not sure how to test it...

Well, how do I know which LNB and where can I get a replacement one?

I've replaced the multiswitch to no avail. As far as testing the 13V line... how would I go about that? I have a DMM but I assume I'm doing something wrong as I am getting a zero for all 4 lines tested. I just assumed it was as easy as placing the positive and negative leads against the...

Sometime yesterday afternoon I noticed my SAT searching for a signal on a channel that I normally get. I figured there must be some cloud cover and went about my daily business. When I got back last night and checked it again, I still wasn't getting that channel and there was no cloud cover...
