Signal Loss

Verify you have had good weather conditions now and recently. If the signal loss is happening or is has started since recent bad weather, you may have a very poor signal or damaged equipment. (See also "Intermittent Signal Loss".)
Verify you have a clear line of sight to the Southern sky. (Since the look angles of the dish are wider than the surface of the dish, people have little success trying to point over, under or around obstacles. The best place to mount your dish is somewhere where there is a completely open area between the direction the dish is facing and the sky.)
Verify that the coaxial cable from the dish is connected to Satellite In port on the back of the receiver, hand tight.
