Switch OK

Thanks Sadoun,

I checked the switch last night. (I bypassed the switch by going directly from the 119 LNBF to the receiver). Still had the same problem of not getting some of the even transponders on 119. Funny thing was, when I went to point dish, they were coming in strong on the meter (over 100). When I would attempt to watch one of the channels I would get a message saying that the 119 transponder 6 (for example) signal had been lost and was being reacquired... I'd go back to point dish screen and the transponder 6 on the 119 would have a strong signal.


It was so weird that I was going to take two pictures of it to post just to prove I wasn't seeing things... only when I got around to taking the pictures, it had cooled down enough outside to where I was getting the even transponders again... it is definitely a heat related issue. I guess I can either hold out until Fall or change out what ever is not operating correctly in the heat (most likely the LNBF).

Thanks again... if this is sounding more and more like the LNBF going bad, please let me know.
