Last night I recieved the error message that I have lost signal from bird 119 on transponder 8 so when I checked the signal strength I was able to get the strengthto be 102 on transponder 13 but for some reason I could not watch any channels on 119.

I did a switch check and it showed that I was using sw21x but only 110 & 148 were showing up as connected. This moring I went down and checked the switch and got all three bird, but by late evening I lost 119 again.

Could this mean that I need to replase my 119 LNB or do I need a new sw21 and sw21x.

Sounds like Lnb or cable or one of the ends on the run to 119. It could be everything you mentioned thou.But I would bet it is a bad connection on the cable to that Lnb. Any joins on that run ? Are the connections good and solid were crimped on the end of the cable.If the cable is good,why don't you try swaping the 119 lnb for say your 148 and see if 148 starts acting up! If that does not make any difference then I would try a switch change.
