    OTA problem

    ADVERTS
    I am having problem with the OTA channel 13 locals here in Okla. city area. I have a h20-100 with newest software. I have good signal on all channels including 13, but the signal on this channel keeps dropping to 0 and then returns to 64-67 range, none of the other channels do this. I have a couple other locals that work fine with similar signals with no dropouts , anybody else seen this kind of problem.
    Appreciate any help, thanks.

    Two likely problems are too much signal, or poorly aligned antenna. How far are the towers?

    If the other channels that are okay are from the same spot, then it sounds like the station is the problem. You might try
    www.avsforum.com


    and look in the local ota section. There may be an answer there for you. Good luck!
