    why does the openbox s9 scan in nbc and fox on 99w but microhd won't?

    i see fox puerto rico is not scanning in now on the microhd. went to the solomend s9 and scanned in perfect. will try again with the microhd. i have trouble downloading to the usb hard drive and then taking it to the computer and editing etc. just curious as to why openbox doesn't have any problems with these two channels. thanks, charlie

    must be a firmware issue, I have 3 S9 and 2 S10 and none of them scan them in. Of course all of them have the same firmware version. Are you sure they're NBC and Fox in 1080i and 720p?? What date is your firmware??? Thanks

    my firmware on the s9 is hdst 11-03-21. it is not one of the newest ones but i like it because the moving dish goes away when it sees signal and it doesn't lock up. charlie

    Yes, I too have quickly scanned in the new NBC and FOX HD channels on 99W with my S9, but the MicroHD doesn't?

    I should have added that I did the complicated workaround posted somewhere on the net... Maybe here? Using the CW HD channel on 91W and moving back to 99W and editing the channel name, etc... Too complicated, but it works. I got NBC HD back doing that, but I hope I don't have to go through that to get FOX HD back.
