I've watched the Encore Westerns channel Ch321 for a few hours the last couple days in a row and the quality level has been fine here in Kansas, I just checked and my quality is rock solid at 91.

It could be your coax if its very old, years ago I had an intermittent loss of signal on all my channels and after a while I had no signal and no power going to the LNB, I changed the coax and right back up.

If the outer cover gets a cut in it or rodents chew on it deep enough water can seep in and ruin the copper core.
