I'm curious. When you stop getting channels of one polarity, what happens if you switch channels (polarity) on the other receiver? I just had a DC power failure on one of my receivers, and I noticed that even though the receiver wasn't providing any power, that I was still getting reception on whatever polarity I had my #1 receiver on. Ie If I tuned to CNN on receiver #1, then I could watch CNN or any other channel of the same polarity on receiver #2, but I could not watch anything on the other polarity. However, if I switched receiver #1 to the other polarity, the I was receiving everything on the other polarity only on receiver #2.
I guess that what I'm suggesting is that your problem might not be getting better then going out again, but might be always bad, and you are just able to view that polarity due to what you have your other receiver set to..... Just a possibility.
