HR22-100 stuck at Step 1 of 2 Checking Satellite connection

Hi, we just had a massive storm here and were without power for over a week. Since the power has come back on I haven't been able to get one of my receivers, an HR22-100 to boot up past the Step 1 of 2 Checking Satellite connection. It will just hang there forever. All my other receivers work fine.
