Anyone having trouble with the MPEG2 HD channels? (Ch 70-95). Mine keep going in and out.

What are your signal levels for the 110 and 119 sats?

Check your dish alignment (as in signal levels), those channels are good for me.

On 110 I'm getting in the 80s on tuner one and in the 90s on tuner 2
On 119 I'm getting 0 on Tuner 1 and in the 90s on tuner 2

oops, that's not good.
Swap cables and see if it changes tuners.

Yeah, getting 90s on one tuner and 0 on another sounds like something is wrong.

(now, if we were talking about OTA signal strengths on the HR20...another story.. ;-))

looks like it might have just been that my connections got loose. Seems to be getting signal from both tuners now. I'll check to see if the dropouts are still occuring a little later

A loose cable can drive an RF tech to drink....a lot! :lol:
