Satellite Reception Issue

[kruss77]

I just started having trouble with satellite reception. Now some channels are pixilated whiles others are fine. I haven’t changed or added anything to my system and have been running it as-is for 3 years now. However, I now have low or no signal on 4 transponders.

Following are the problem transducers and their signal strength (all others are at a signal strength of 80 or higher):

Sat 101
T28: 32

Sat 119
T23: 0
T31: 67

Sat 110
T8: 73

Here re the details of my system:

3 Hughes HDVR2 DVRs
2 RCA DTV Receivers
5x8 multiswitch
Oval 3 LNB dish mounted on south gable end of house.

Any help would be appreciated.

With the exception of the transponder on 110, I believe all of the others you've listed are spot beams and may have a low or no signal level in your area. Your 73 on 110 is a little low, although mine isn't much higher, an 85.
I have 0 signal level on both transponders 23 and 31 where I live. 101, transponder 28, here has a 78 or 79.
Most of my other transponder readings are in the high 80's and 90's. it sounds like a realignment of your dish might be needed.
