I can't really think why it would stop working once you had it up and
running, but I do know that missing HD channels can be an incoming
antenna signal strength issue.

Fiddling with aerial amplifiers, splitters and attenuators I can quite
easily get HD only, SD only or both sets of channels from my 290e.

So if after getting things working you decided to tidy up your antenna
wiring then I'd suggest that's it.  If you haven't touched anything then
maybe turning on/off other connected devices has made a difference in
signal levels, but that seems less likely.
