I don't have satellite. But, is your dish aligned correctly? Any new obstructions (tree limb, etc)?

On satellite systems, you "send" via a phone line, correct?

If so, then it sounds like a downlink issue.

Is your sat provider having problems?

Sorry I can't be of more help.

Cool. Thanks a lot for the swift replies.

FReepaholic:

Actually, tech. support was saying the problem wasn't on my end, but, for whatever reason, I just don't believe them. They were claming other folks in the area might be experiencing a similar problem.

I checked for obstructions and don't see any.

Swordmaker:

I played with alignment some more this evening. No dice. Actually, the last time a tech. was out here, he drew a vertical line with a black Sharpie on the pipe, to indicate the proper position. I have the positioning the way he recommendend. Still, the signal is just very weak.

Thank you again for your replies. I will keep troubleshooting.
