it sounds like you have to fine tune your dish...

All transponders on the Dish and BEV satellites have two output power levels, all spotbeams are at one level, all CONUS are at another, so the problem is more then likely at your end.

The problem could be, extreme rain/snow/wind, a wet connection, bad connector due to corrosion, bad coax or coax jumper, missing one polarity from the LNB due to a bad switch or a bad or flaky switch.

If all "R" transponders were weak or all "L" transponders were weak then it could be the coax coming down from the LNB to any switch, if you have legacy LNB's then it could be a DC voltage problem with the coax, (too much DC resistance) or the switch it's self.

What type and brands of LNBs you have, and do you have any switches inline would help us a whole bunch.

If your coax is very old (10 years or more) it could have a cracked jacket and you have water inside the coax, water does strange things when it gets inside the coax.
