Nothing new. It comes and goes at various channels on the mux, usually when there's heavy weather like the east coast is getting today.

Question about NBC MUX CH 1

I have all 4 channels on 72W - AMC 6 but lost sound on MUX Channel 1.

Used to have sound on this channel but lost it maybe 2 or 3 weeks ago.

All other channels have sound when they have a picture.

Anyone else have this problem?

Others have commented on it. It's not just your setup.

The mux transponder is very low for me today, hardly even there. Last night it was fine.

Other known active transponders on AMC6 seem to be unaffected.

Maybe the uplink site is snowed in. I haven't been able to get the mux for quite a while now on my undersized dish, but today GBN is also gone. I still seem to be getting an average number of feeds from the usual suspects though.

Has the power level on AMC6 Ku dropped across the board tonight for anyone else? I haven't had the mux for a while on my 18" dish (I really gotta get a bigger 2nd dish, or motorize the 30"), but yesterday and today GBN kept disappearing too. Lots of feeds were still up though. But now tonight I have nothing, no fixed channels, no feeds. I'm only getting a signal strength reading on two frequencies, 11742 and 12195. Both of them show a high quality reading on my Coolsat but no channels will scan in. I tried TSReader on my Twinhan card and the first one shows 3Mbps of null packets and the second one won't lock. I went out and shoved the dish over to 74W and I got ONN and three feeds, so the LNB is fine. Then I put it back to 72W and I still only get the above two signals. I DON'T think they're spurious signals coming from the LNB, the switch, or the receiver, or else they wouldn't show a quality reading, right?

GBN just came back up, pounding in at 91S/78Q. Nothing else yet though.
