SD receiver problem

I'm a newbie here and thinking about adding an HD receiver to my DTV service. I have two sd receivers. I plan to keep one sd receiver and replace the other with an HD in my den. However I have encountered a problem with both sd receivers I have now. At least once and usually more often daily my tv screen will go black for about 10 seconds and then the receiver will turn off. A few seconds later it will come back on but will always be on a different channel. This is really a problem when you taping a program. Is this a receiver problem or a satalite problem. I'm thinking satalite since both receivers do this. Want to find the problem before having HD installed.
