Did 61.5 get lost or did I lose a port on the SW64? I was getting some HD local channels on 61.5 but lost them too. The first to go was the test slate at 61.5 though.

Something is wrong at your end, if 61.5 was down you will see a thread with many pages here at Satelliteguys.us.

Unplug everything from the switch to reset it, wait a few minutes and plug everything back. Run check switch on the receiver, Menu, 6, 1, 1, Check Switch.
 
I looked at the front of the dish and there was snow packed on it. Could not see that from the bedroom window had to go out in the snow covered yard. We had snow yesterday but I guess the covered part slipped to where the signal reflects off the dish today. Nice bright sun today but still cold.
All is normal now.
 
There are 2 sats at 61.5. And it is uplinked from multiple locations. For something to go wrong with either both sats or all uplinks would be extrordinalrially rare.
