Left Out in the HD Cold

YEA! Glad they got you up and running. What you described is a "hard reset/reboot". Kudos for the hot & cold water comment!

Those signal readings look great. You should be able to still bring up the signal menu, even when the error is happening. Also try spraying cold water on the dish LNB. If it's a temperature sensitive LNB, then the cold water will make it work again
