I had my dish moved today. I have three receivers with a total of 4 lines coming in. One of the receivers is not receiving a signal. The other two are fine. I plugged the "bad line" into one of the working receivers and am getting the same issue so I know the issue is somewhere between the dish and the receiver. I tested the signal strength and I am getting 0 on all 101 transponders but the thing that puzzles me I get a signal on some of the 110 and 119 transponders.

Is the multiswitch bad or is something not screwed in tight? I have them coming bad tomorrow, but just wanted to get some ideas.
 
if you moved the bad receiver to another spot and it worked, then its either the cable coming from the multiswitch to the house or the multiswitch itself

you get everything on the other two receivers?

Essentially, I switched the cables around in basement where they come into the house.

Yeah, the other two receivers seem to be getting everything fine.
