    All 3 still there for me. microHD Level 90 and Quality 51

    PQ looks normal on all 3 channels.
    There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness"

    Yep, Micro hd scanning them in at 71 pct for me, That channel or group of channels gets flaky at times, sometimes it flickers from 50 to 60 and then at times it is at a steady 71 pct for me.

    btw a primestar should pull it in at least at 50 pct quality depending on what type of receiver you have. I hit it at 70 plus with a primestar and a pansat 2700.

    ADVERTISING BOX


    Thanks, I thought it was weird too. I had to factory=default my SD box (Icon) and start rescanning. Wouldn't get RTV. Then I decided the firmware in it must be corrupted, so I reloaded the file from my computer, via usb stick. Still no. Forgot to f/d it again after reloading firmware, so I did that and started over for the third time, still just gets the two channels. On a 1m dish it should pull it in. I'll study it further Wednesday.
