PBS location

[John2021]

Last night my local PBS was breaking up and pixelating. Has anyone else had this issue?? I am also wondering what sat there on along with the transponder?? It also might be a weak signal issue and i might need the dish repointed. Though id'e like to check the signal before i call DTV!!! It's on channel 54 in so cal.

Can't get a better signal than that! Is the channel still pixelating? Keep checking the signal strength to see if it varies. You may have an lnb issue.

Nope Raoul that's as good as it gets!!! Yes the channel pixelates at times as well as channel 5 the cw also. I will keep checking the signal strength also. I guess I'll have to do what I don't want to do and schedule a service call ugh. Are there other options for balconies besides the pole mounts???

Yea same situation. And no room for a non penitrating roof mount. They set me up with the 5ft pole mount wich is crap in high winds!!!

 

[John2021]

Don't the 5ft poles have an endent feature to lock it from blowing in the wind
