4dtv little or no signal quality in the morning but good signal at night

[Jullius]

I have a dsr922 that I've been using with HITS for about 18 months. In the last month or so, the signal is always below threshold in the morning. Between 1-35 quality, but as the day goes on it slowly climbs up to 64 and stays that way until sometime overnight. I usually have the receiver tuned to NickJr. I'm using a 6 ft WSI special for the dish.

Any ideas as to what is going on? I have tried re-aiming the dish and swapped out an lnbf, but it makes no difference.

Have you tried a different receiver, to eliminate that possibility? Any fta receiver should work.

Check your coax connections at your ground block. Could be moisture in the line somewhere.

Scott has a good point.
Two users reporting weak signals on *some* transponders in the last month, suffered from bad/spliced/wrong coax.

I knew somebody would confuse me with Scott today using the same avatar.

Thanks. I'll check the coax out.

 

[KE4EST]

Let us know if you get it figured out.

Check the pole. Might have moved (tipped). Any how it's mounted, movement is possible. Might just need a little"tweak".

Really sounds like a moisture / temperature problem to me.

I think it was a coax / moisture problem. It has mysteriously fixed itself before I could get out and test a new run of coax. If it happens again. I am going to check that first.
