Is this an alignment issue or something else?

So up until yesterday I've not had any issue, but all of a sudden some of my HD channels started to report signal issues.  Then after a few more hours, the more of them were out.  I still have some but not all of them. So, I'm not sure if this is an alignment issue, cable, hardware or something else.

I've visually inspected the cable and it's appears to be fine.  The dish has not moved and there isn't anything blocking the signal.  Wanted to ask here before I started to do anything with the alignment, in fear that I messed it up when the issue was hardware.  Thanks
