Same here at about 5:50 my time. Only thing I get are locals off the spotbeam on 110.
If anybody is losing their signal for no apparent local storm activity, it's because a major storm cell just erupted over Cheyenne, WY tonight about 6:45 MDT. Cheyenne is the E* uplink center.
mine went out a few minutes ago. i called 800-333-dish and got a busy signal. i figured that was a bad sign.

Glad to know we're not the only ones. Here in Western Wisconsin and the signal has been in and out for the past 15 minutes or so...
Lost everything here in San Francisco area too.

Damn Storms they are everywhere!!
I grabbed my bow saw in case I had to trim some trees or branches along the lake that are near the dishes.
Can't get through to that other DBS Forum now either. ;)
Doesn't dish have backup facilities in the case of severe storms ? I googled for some info and found information on a site in Gilbert, AZ that would be a backup ??

Seems to me they should...
110, 119 and 61.5 going off and on here also in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton area.

Good to know its not my dish, and saved me a call.
