MTA on AMC3

I was getting MTA without any problem on my 786 dvb. But recently it does not come during daytime! Right after sunset, it startscoming without any problem. I checked all connections,dish alignments etc. Nothing seems to be wrong. What can I do to fix this problem?> It is annoying.
Thank You

It may be that your lnb is drifting freq wise with the change of temperature. Not particularly common with the relatively mild temps this time of year, but possible. It might also be that you just have the wrong freq programmed in for that transponder. You might try scanning in freqs that are about 5 MHz higher and/or lower than you are using when you are getting reception, and see if you then get good reception. If so, you might be able to find a compromise setting that will work for both day and night.
