DISH has a software issue with RV domes. They are promising to fix the problem but it' been going on for awhile now and there is not yet a resolution.
I think Dish recently changed something somewhere. I have set up a tripod mounted 1000.4 on Eastern Arc for the last 8 years, in the same park, in the same exact location, on Memorial day weekend. Just pull the 211K out of the house where its connected to a 1000.2 WA dish, and set it up at campground on the EA setup. This year no dice. Despite having strong signal on all 3 birds, could not get the locals I could get before (same locals as home) and lots of the HD channels would throw the partial or total signal loss errors and revert to the SD equivalents. I had to have Dish change the zip code, and flash the receiver, which did get me locals from the middle of the state, but still having some issues with some HD channels. I've moved and re-peaked the setup now 3 times. As far as the locals from the middle of the state, I am only 28 miles east of home and know for a fact I am still in the local spot beam for the western side. Dish something amiss I think.
I suspect they have moved some channels around, either between birds or transponders, and do not have the bugs worked out yet.
