Lost 119

[120inna55]

I suddenly lost 119. 110 is fine. No bad weather, no wind, etc. Just suddenly lost the Monday Night Football game. I found it on 110, though. Is anyone else having this problem? I've never lost a satellite signal without bad weather.

Yes, I lost it for a minute or so but it came back.

[Scott Greczkowski]

Yup lost it for like 5 minutes, 110 and 61.5 were coming in fine.

Hehehe...it's aliens mucking with the satellite.

Seriously, I get paranoid about such things (my equipment, not aliens), so it's nice to have this board and get immediate feedback. Thanks guys.

I also lost 119 for a couple of minutes, weather is clear, 110 and StarBand were fine.

Same thing happened here ... I thought it was anouther Thunderstorm

My sat also went out around 10:55 at the end of "for love or money" i thought my wife was going to kill me for going with dish. I think we might have to cancel at the end of the year due to the outagage....

I thought it was something wrong with my 721, since it was clear weather outside. :eek2:

I new something wrong with Satellites - the only explanation i could think of :)

I lost my locals which are on 110. I could've lost 119 too, but i didn't check. I was recording " for love or money" for my sister.She is getting my 501 when i upgrade to 510 tomorrow. She is gonna kill me.

I just thought it was my DishPlayer acting up.

I wonder what the problem was?

[rtt2]

I lost it as well. I thought it was a storm coming but I guess not now.

Here is the problem: http://www.crh.noaa.gov/radar/latest/DS.p19r0/si.kcys.shtml

Bad weather moving through Cheyenne (DISH's uplink center).

[styxfix]

And I thought it was switch (64) was going bad. I had to do 3 switch tests until it finally started working again. Maybe they're moving all those HD channels to the main sats after the C. Chat and pushed the wrong button. Oops.

I wonder if the weather really caused it? I wonder what would have happened had it occured an hour earlier during the charlie chat? Would charlie have come up with a good excuse? I could see charlie saying now "Well we're back on an extended charlie chat now because ....... mark can you tell us what caused us to lose signal?" with sweat pouring off his forehead. :lol:

Dude,

Your wife needs a reality check! :grin:

OK....first, I lose my 119's. Then, when those go down, 110 goes out. Now, 119 and 110 are working, but my Nashville locals (110 Sb 6) aren't coming in.

NOW, they're coming in, but VERY pixelated. Dang weather. Am I the only one who things DBS services should have mirrored upload centers uploading to the same sats, so that, if one goes down, the others are still up...

I thought the SAME thing! I wound up rebooting the receiver and it was back on when it finished rebooting.
