Hey, tried a search but couldnt come up with the answer I am looking for. I have been a tech for only about 2 months and I am still having problems with trouble/service calls but it is getting better. I just had a question about a problem I ran into today, my FSM said he didnt know what the problem was. Anyways if there is a tech who could help me out, that would be great. I was on a service call and had an isolated problem with a 301. I ran checkswitch and it came at all ok with a dish pro lnb. So I didnt know what to think but for some reason that receiver only kept losing signal, the others were fine. I changed the lnb quad and tried it again, checkswitch came out ok again but kept losing signal. I realigned the dish and ran another check and the signal on 119 and 110 went up about 10 but was still lower by about 10 than the other 2 receivers. So anyways I changed the receiver and left it on the entire time I was cleaning up and doing paperwork and it never lost signal so I guess something was up with the receiver. So my question is, why or how would the checkswitch come out ok and signal was 98 and 88 and it still lost signal? Maybe a dumb question but I just didnt understand it. Btw when I hooked the new 311 up the signal went to 125 and 115 but was 98/88 on the 301. Sorry for the long post but any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
