Question: Is that just a best practice or you it might solve my issue? Also, with the polarity locker from what I can tell it would power the dish so does that mean I disconnect the power inserters? I know with the SWiMs it doesn't matter where you connect the 4 cables from the dish but I'm...

That's on my list, to replace the two SWiM 16's with a single SWiM. The smart outlet makes it easy to reset the SWiMs from anywhere but I hope I can fix this as it's a pain. Normally it's about once a week but yesterday I had to do it twice which is unusual.

I will look into one of those meters... Forgot to mention in my original posting: -Had a DTV "tech" come-out and he said everything was fine. He didn't even mention about the loss with using the Legacy ports or suggest any of the things I have tried. -I forced firmware updates on all 24...

I know the H-25s are not DVRs and the other units, which are not part of the ones 8 that act-up, I think are H-24s but they are not being used for any DVR stuff. Since they are fine I haven't done much poking around with them so I apologize if I don't have the correct model numbers.

The SWiMs and the LNB are about 30 feet away from each other. When the receivers are working, the signal strength is high 90s or 100. I have seen different dish aiming meters but since the issue only affects 8 out of the 24 TVs I didn't think it was a dish/LNB/coax to the SWiMs issue. If you...

Thank you for the reply! There are two SWiM 16's joined together with the E-2 that provide three coax lines that have their own splitters. These are DTV green-label splitters including the new spiltter that I tried which didn't help. There are no amplifiers and the SWiM 16's are being powered by...

Thank you for the reply. I thought about replacing connectors and swapping receivers around but was hoping for a simple solution... I was thinking that a bad receiver in the 8 could be sending something back into the coax to throw them off. I ran all of the self-tests including the ones from...

Spent a lot of time trying different things to fix this issue so now I'm here. I will try to cover all of the things I did since they will be suggested. It's 20 H-25 and 4 H-24 receivers supplied by three 8-way splitters. About once a week, the same 8 H-25 receivers that are fed from the same...
