Hi Everyone!! This is my first post. I've been reading and got all my answers to get me up a running to this point. The information here is invaluable!! Thanks to everyone! My problem is that my even transponders are down in the 30's and my odds are good in the high 70's to mid 80's. From what I've read in this forum, this can cause groups of channels to not come in. That is what's happening to me. I've checked every connection. I've verified the plumb and level of the dish. I've tried a different LNB, Dish, and Receiver. Anyone have any ideas? Is it possible for a partial obstruction to cause this problem? I have a pretty narrow shot to the satellite. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Cellular I'll give your suggestions a try. There is no eave, staples or wallplates. I went out today and tried to re-align the dish while I was measuring an even transponder signal. The best I could get was 54 and it was a clear sky. I think I will try moving the dish a foot or so in another direction and see if that helps. I appreciate your suggestions.
