(As I discovered when I hit our pole at home with the lawnmower!) Perhaps a tech person can re-check the elevation & azimuth of the dish. If all else fails, you can switch to Dish Network. For $100 a year and an inexpensive 18" dish & receiver you can get TV-5. (Subscription must be ordered through commercial accounts of the Dish Network.)
