Sometimes I will be watching a channel on one of my 2 622s, and suddenly I will get the popup error 002 "Satellite signal has been lost. Signal acquisition is in progress." The signal never comes back if I let it sit there. If I channel up/down everything is fine until it happens again.


There's no "blocking" or other warning signs before it happens. Just suddenly get a black screen and the error. I have noticed it happens only on HD channels, and particularly on CNN HD.

Tried the check switch, and all three sats showed up green, nothing about LNB drift. Checked the cabling too.

Any idea what could be causing this?

I've been having signal loss also lately. I noticed I have LNB Drift on 129, so I ordered a new LNB. It hasn't arrived yet. At lunch today though my 61.5 had no signal at all on a beautiful day. Something seems to be going on with my setup, but I haven't seen many complaints on this forum.
 
Do you have any trees to right of the dish, the 129 is the lowest and furthest right.
System Info is where you'll see LNB drift, not the check switch screen.
