I have the hopper and 3 receivers. The hooper will say lost signal but the other tv will catch the signal. I may have another tv say no signal and the hopper catch. Dish moved the receiver because of trees but should all or none catch ? Thanks in advance

It's hard to say, are you on the same channels when comparing the different boxes? Another issue may be somewhere in the installation. Water can infiltrate the coax and cause intermittent issues and eventually fail to receive any signal. There's probably a grounding block somewhere near the satellite, I'd start there, unscrew any joints and look at the copper core. If it looks corroded, there's your issue.

Do you have 3 extra receivers or Joeys? If it is the Joeys, they get their signal from the Hopper.

You say that Dish moved the receiver, do you mean the outside dish?

If you have 4 receiver (Joey plus 3 others), there could be an issue in the coax tees somewhere. The signal will decrease with more connections.
