What exactly is glitching? Works fine for me. Have you tried a red button reset, and any error codes that show up? Could possibly be a dish misalignment that causes it to dip in and out every couple minutes.

Where are you located?  This is probably a local station issue. Is it happening on mre than one channel?

Two possibilities.

First, there's a problem with signal from your local fox station to directv. Which station is it (call sign)?

Second, you have a dish alignment problem. This would usually affect multiple stations, but the others affected maybe you don't watch. Check NBC/ABC and see if they have a problem,

I think it's the first because some other people on FB are having issues with their sister network
