If you can't figure out a way to check your dish alignment, I can't help you with that, but I'm curious about you saying you went through 4 receivers. Are they all just getting poor signal, or are they dying in some other way? If they're dying, I'd be a little worried that maybe your house wiring has a bad neutral and all the current is going through the ground connection, or something of that nature.
hi, house wiring is fine, i have TING thru insurance company and it monitors my electrical continuously. i even put unit on other leg of power coming into house. all the boxes failed and was told hard drives have died. 1 contractor told me they have a bad batch of hard drives and give them out with knowing there bad. you have a problem fix it, don't make your customers go thru hell cause your cheap. 1 contractor can't figure out why so many hard drives also. he did find that the original wire from dish and splitter was wrong and fixed that.
go to whisker labs and check out TING and you will see how it monitors the electric system.
i think my biggest complaint is every time something goes north i have to call in and get the idiots over seas who read screens and don't understand the equipment. its like they talk down to you. i always do restarts, button or turning power off to restart before calling in and they can't understand that i know how how this system works. been reading way before i decided to get dish.
here is a good 1, called in early 1 morning and can't remember why but was sent to advanced tech, he said signal was very bad from looking at system, he sent out same install company, dish van and they claimed dish was misaligned, well it was 1 of 2 guys who installed it. found out later 1 was there for only 3 months and training the other guy. week later had same issues i think and called in again, told signal issues again and sent out same kids again. he said someone forgot to tighten the dish down, know get you he was the one training the other. now out of unit replaced, 1 shipped and others where of truck. so the truck had the bad units,.
why you get treated like crap and you know when the system is going out, you tell them you have a day before it goes out and then they say well you have tv so we will send tech out in week or two and then next day it dies. no your on phone and they say you have an appointment in a week. they don't understand the service is out. screen readers with knowledge of system there supporting. when you have such bad luck as i have had, you just give up. so far i was able to stop 2 peeps from getting dish over my troubles.
anyway you all have a good day
