MV3500A

Have you ever repaired a MV3500A Winegard Satellite Antenna.I've had one of these which I bought new (10 years)and now it has quit working.
I been looking for someone to repair it but haven't had any luck. I would like to send it to someone for repair so if you had one of these and had it repaired and had a good experience please let me know and thanks ahead a time.

    Not working is kind of generic.. Symptoms

    Does it do NOTHING
    Does it try to lock on to a satellite but can not succeed
    Are you a DISH NETWORK customer or DirecTV

    Domes: Do not work on DirecHDTV, period, they do work on DirecTV (no HD)

    on dish they can work on both SD and HD BUT... Dish recently did a software upgrade on their satellites,, Older domes no longer can lock on them, Now SOME domes may be upgradable, but frankly that's above my pay grade and I can no longer send you to the man who knows (He hung out on a different forum family and management ran him off..... I think they wanted a professional sponsorship from him and he's not that rich).
