HD reception problem

[saea501]

I have a Dish 1000, 3 LNBF aimed at 236 AZ, 28 EL and 126 SK, and I live in northeast Ohio. Having a little trouble with a couple of HD stations, HGHD is missing altogether, never been able to receive it. Then at times one or two of the others will get the digital jaggies, freeze up then continue on. I have re peaked the Dish more than once on 119 and get a signal strength of about 100, 110. Signal strength on 129 is much lower, below 70.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.

Sounds like you need to reaim. You can either give it a shot yourself or call an installer to help you out.

If you have the straight 1000 you may need the 1000.2. It's a little larger dish. I'm in southeast Michigan and have had mine for about a month. The sig strength is lower on the 129 bird but as always worked. When they installed mine they delayed it a week so they could use the 1000.2 instead of the 1000 due to sig issues.
