Directv 771 signal problem - help
Hello All,
I am a fulltimer, parked in a seasonal site in Maine. I have been here since early May, directv has been fine - until yesterday. I don't get it; nothing has changed, haven't moved the coach, absolutely no dish obstruction, weather is perfect. So, what happened? I am getting the "searching for signal" 771 message and some picture freeze - it comes and goes. I have reset the receiver 2 x's with moderate improvement (but not cured), I also stowed the winguard travelr auto roof dish then raised again. OK, what is next? I cannot get to the connections in the back of the receiver, the electronics are PACKED in the overhead compartment - maybe if I get a helper - need more hands to move/hold receiver/dvd/and more.
thanks for any input. I will call direct if need be, but they don't always have a grasp of sat service in rv's.
