    Receiver froze up?

    I am still having problems two days later. Is anyone else still having this issue? After getting through to technical support and going through their inane troubleshooting steps (as if a software push can cause problems with the coax cable), I finally got them to agree to send a technician...

    Receiver froze up?

    Just finished reading this thread. My HR22 was running very slow last night, so I did a red button reboot. Unfortunately it now boots to the Step 1 of 2 Checking Satellite Settings page and goes no further. I have tried several resets via the red button. I have unplugged the unit and...

    Signal Strength on AM21

    Ok, thanks. I was going under antenna setup and re-doing the initial setup, but I didn't think to go under edit channels.

    Signal Strength on AM21

    Is there a way to measure the OTA signal strength on the AM21? I have a vague recollection of doing this when I first got my AM21 several months ago, but I can't figure out how to do it now. I guess I could have just dreamed about doing this measurement.

    OTA is breaking up

    Good point. I'll see what I can find and let you know how it works. Thanks for the help.

    OTA is breaking up

    Thanks for the help guys. I'll see about getting an omnidirectional antenna with a little less sensitivity to see if it helps. FYI: My house construction is a wood frame house with gabled ends (the east side is a gable). It has vinyl siding and a composite roof. It sits pretty high on a...

    OTA is breaking up

    I'm having some trouble with the signal from my OTA antenna and I'll admit I'm a bit confused. First, I'll let you know that I live in zip code 66205 and according to TV Fool I am between 2.8 and 9.0 miles from the transmitters I'm interested in watching. The azimuth for these station is...

    ESPN HD... wow!

    There definitely is a difference in the picture quality between the two. The other thing I notice is that many times there is a ridiculous audio delay when watching FSN Midwest. I'm talking nearly a second when watching baseball games between seeing the batter hit and hearing the crack of the...

    Can I give OTA locals priority?

    I just want to clarify something regarding the AM21. If the local station is available in HD from D* in addition to OTA, can I receive and record from either source? The reason for my question is because of this information on the D* site: I don't want to purchase this add on and then learn...

    Hr21

    I just signed up for the D* and received an HR21. I wish they would have told me ahead of time that the DVR I would be receiving didn't do OTA because I spent a lot of time getting an antenna run to that location. I do get my locals over satellite, but my PBS station is not in HDTV.
