My HD local started searching for Sat on Tuesday, 11-23.
It is happening on 3 swm HR-20 receivers.

I've got 1 kaku slimline with swm lnb to an 8 port swm mulitiswitch. The power inverter is on the furthest run to keep the signal amped right. and i have 3 hddvr's on that 8 port. No b-band converters and i have reran satellite setup on all 3 receivers.Cat 5 ran to each receiver for whole home network set up.

My local non hd channels are coming through fine, but the local hd channels go straight to searching for satellite. I've got no less than 95% on sat 101 no less than 92% on 99. and no less than 93% on 103. and this is all receivers.

One important Note. My local channel address is Columbia, SC. My location is actually Eastern NC.

Did DirecTV move the HD local channel location?
 
they did not move the channels that I can see. I checked a chart form 2 weeks ago versus one from July and they are still on the same spot

Columbia HD is on 99W TP5 spotbeam (s)...what is the signal showing for that transponder?
 
Its posted above
99W
Transponder 5
spotbeam

so when you check satellite signals make sure you're on 99s when checking the signal
