Hi 12.399 has gone 'bad or no signal' on me for some reason. Full signal strength, just red. I don't see anyone over at sat9182 asking about so it must be me. Not sure what to do about it. Affects all channels on that frequency.
Thanks for any help.

If you are using any switches remove them and connect your receiver directly to the LNB and see if the TP comes back. If it does not it sounds like your LNB is starting to fail.

Thanks again!
Try re-scanning the TP, doesn't have anything to do with sat9182. A month ago all my tps were red, turned out my switch outside was no good anymore, replaced and back to normal.Quote:

I just had the same thing happen on one of my T5s. I swapped both T5s, and confirm that the good one works in both locations, and the bad/red one does not work in either location - so that rules out cabling, switches and power supply.
Is this likely to be a failing DL200 module? I am a little hesitant to swap DL200 modules, cause I don't want to fry my working one if it's an issue with the box itself....
Remove the module & deal with the 91 sat alone.See if you can watch sd without the module.Quote:

I'm convinced that the modules die prematurely because of heat.Long cable runs with multiple switches/lnb's doesn't help either.I install supplemental cooling to ALL my stbs.I have not had a repeat module failure since that practice.Also make sure that the silicone heat sink makes proper contact with the 8psk AND the steel housing.Absolute must!
I have found that the modules with the Aluminum/metal Heat-sinks, seem to last Longer
they must dissipate the Heat better I'm guessing ?
Also for extra Cooling for your Rec./Boxes get a set of these:I have set and I have no problems with Heat issues on my BoxesCode:https://www.amazon.ca/PCCOOLER-Adjustable-Portable-Compatible-Playstation/dp/B08XNLSB9M/ref=sr_1_7?dchild=1&keywords=usb%2Bpowered%2Bfan&qid=1617489032&sr=8-7&th=1
