Signal strength slowly declining

[bonnjer]

I've noticed that my signal strength has been slowly declining over a period of time. Had my switch replaced back in January (if I remember right) and the signal was around 50 at that time. About a week ago, I noticed that it was down around 38 and has been going down by around 1 a day, currently around 30-31. There is nothing loose on the dish itself and there has not been any storms / wind in the area recently. Any ideas on this one? Thanks!

might be the LNB failing on your Dish, that is common for a failing LNB to see signal issues.

Sounds like a bad mount. It's probably not mounted over a stud and the Lag bolts are starting to come up. I'd get it fixed before it rips out completely and starts letting water in if it hasn't already.
