After a year of happy satelliting, (pardon the term) my locals from 105 disappeared. Actually, for awhile their signal strength was spotty, and then they completely disappeared. It is as if there is something blocking them, but nothing is. Satellite 119 and 110 come in fine, but 105 is now nowhere to be found. When I still had 105, I checked to make sure the dish was not misaligned - the alignment was fine.
Is this a bad LNB? Dish wants me to pay $60/hour plus a high trip charge to diagnose it, but I don't want to pay the money if I can just replace the LNB myself. But because there are two LNB's on it, I don't know which to replace, or even if that's the problem. I've spent about 2 hours talking to some woman from dish network on the phone, only to realize that I am more competent when it comes to satellite systems than she is. (and I don't know much)
If the alignment seemed good before it went out, and there's nothing blocking it, is it the LNB? And if so, which LNB(F) do I replace? I have a Superdish, and it's got two LNB's on it, one larger than the other. Thanks for your help.
