    I had the same problem on Monday. I did a hard reset (unplugged it) and every thing is working fine. Note my hard drive was almost full (10 min left) so I deleted a couple of things to make space in case that was the problem.

    Should I be able to get a signal here? (photos included)

    Just becuase you can get DTV does not mean you can get Dish. DTV orbital slot at 101 is a 30 degree more to the southeast than 129 and the elevation would be about 12 degrees lower in the sky that is a huge difference. From 119 to 129 is 10 degrees different and about 4 degrees lower. Trust me...

    Satellite on Electric Utility Pole

    It is illegal to mount a dish on a electric/telephone pole. It is also illegal to put your garage sale or missing cat sign on the pole. Best thing to do is move your dish. The electric company has more money for lawyers than you.
