sorry, I put lost channels on 129 in title, I meant "119"

I am getting lost satellite signal Satellite 119, transponder 6 but ONLY on 4 channels... 112, 160, 214, 215.

I receive those 4 channels fine on my 522, but not on my 811.

Dish 1-800 tech had me do a receiver reset, a check switch etc., but to no avail, and is sending a tech out for a $29 fee.

I get a 44 signal strength on 119, transponder 6. I get a 95 on transponder 11, and the check switch picks transponder 11 automatically, but after the check switch finishes and the guide downloads, I continue to get satellite lost transponder 6, on only those 4 channels.

If I leave the 811 on one of those 4 channels that says satellite signal as been lost, it comes on after about 90-seconds, but then goes back to the error if I change channels.

I just thought is was strange that it only affected 4 channels, and only on 1 receiver.

I have satellites 119, 110, 105, 61.5

Dish said it is either a switch, cable or receiver problem? Really narrowed it down.
