Intermittent Signal Loss

If the signal loss happens frequently during bad weather and returns when the weather clears up, you may have low signal strength to begin with. If the signal loss always happens at a specific time, you may need to find out what is happening at that time that would cause the signal outage. Some electrical devices in the home may cause a problem when they are on. Also, outside antennas from radio stations or emergency services as well as radar detectors can cause interference. If the signal outage happens in the spring or summer time only, the dish may be facing a tree in which the leaves fall off for the winter and then grow back during this time of year.
