Losing satellite connection during peak viewing hours

Satellite connection is going out with code 775, for 3rd afternoon/evening this week. We have tried resetting numerous times, unplugging SWim plug, checked all cables, etc. Weird thing is, that sometime in middle of the night, like 2am this morning, it comes back on and works ok until late afternoon

It's easy to peak signal readings on the main 101ºW satellite. The challenge for proper HD reception is to also peak 99 and 103º satellites. How are your other transponder readings on the 99º satellite?

Specific satellite & transponder

Which satellite and transponder does DirecTV use for channel 674 (ATSWHD, AT&T Sportsnet)? I live in Sugar Land, Texas (Houston area).

Question

Mine does the same thing on both my boxes. It’s reacting like an AGC is on. It usually drops after loud rise in the program audio. It over adjusts for the peak then eventually returns to a normal level until another loud peak hits again.

Volume Goes Up & Down on DirecTV Stream

I am having trouble with the volume going up and down on all channels on DirecTV Stream. Am using the TV's speakers. Does anyone have a remedy? There was a similar question in the Forums from four years ago, but no solution was offered.

Question

Yes, you need to peak the readings on the 101º satellite, then use the fine adjustment knobs to peak the 99 and 103º HD satellite readings. Be sure that you dish mast is perfectly plumb. And you'll need B-Band Converter modules for each of the HR20

ok i just installed a slimeline three non swm anyways i used two lines coming out of lnb i didnt know if it mattered which two i used, ok ran straight to the line one and line two in on the back of an hr 20 . i have 85 signal on sat 101 on both line one and two , ran a test and had x s on the 99

Question

Yes. The 101 is a SD satellite and as such has a broad flat topped beam easily found. If you peak the dish to the 101, then go to the narrow pointed top beam of the 99c, then you can really zero in. If the mast is perfectly plumb, peaking the 99c

You dither on either 99 or 103 because those satellites have the weaker signals. Peaking either one of those should peak the other.

That tilt marking should be accurate enough, provided your mast is perfectly plumb. You'll want to use any of the Conus transponders on the 101º satellite to initially peak the dish's readings. I like to use transponder 3. Once you've peaked the

Thanks, it came back on this morning and I saw SS on both 99 sats around 50-60. Last night they were 0. I will try to peak them today.

It really doesn't matter what channels are on what transponders you can't align the dish for transponders, as stated you have to peak the SD 101 then dither the HD 99/103

Search YouTube for some good videos showing to align and "dither" the Slimline dish to peak the 99 and 103º signal readings. They should be up in the 80-90s.

HD question....prob heard this before. ;)

Ok....I'm on a new HD HR44-700. Not sure if that's impressive or not. I know my danged guide is giving me fits, though! SL3 LNB antenna....reverse band(?)....SWM LNB 22 CH. Sat transponders 32 total on the 101 sat are all 97 and up 'cept two that are zeroes. 18 and 28.

Question

You're aiming for the 101ºW satellite. Since you don't care about the HD satellites, don't worry about tilt/skew. Just aim for 101º and peak its signal using the Receiver's signal meter.

Anyone know of an easy way to use the AIM just as a meter. I suppose I can leave it on step 1, where i peak for 101. Im sure the KA band sat signal readings would be helpful too.

There is no way to tune only one sat, what you do is peak the 101 in the high 90s or 100 then dither the other 2, all HD is on the 99,103 sats.
