I have a service call scheduled for July 2. Been trying to troubleshoot since it was a week from when I had the problem. I will have to reschedule since my wife will not be home to sit and I do not want to take a vacation day for the call. Also, the guy coming out did the install and I was...

Over the weekend, I unplugged everything and reconnected it all. Yes, in the correct ports. Now, I get no OTA. Also, the sat on the front turns from green to red when tuning to OTA. I thought it might be the diplexer and so I swapped it out and nothing happened. I believe I have...

I did some unplugging and resetting over the weekend and now like, rkr0923, I get no OTA at all. The sat symbol on front now turns red when tuned to an OTA channel. I bought a diplexer to swap out and that did not work. I am thinking it is the 8VSB module.

Yes, I rebooted by holding it down until it starts the reboot process. It powers down, then it comes back on. I did it again tonight and now none of my locals are working. I unplugged everything and reseated the 8VSB module. THen plugged it all back up. I get all of the sat signals, now...

I am currently experiencing this same phenomenon. The reboot holding the power button did not resolve the problem. Any suggestions? I have a service call coming up in one week! I do not think he will have any extra pieces of equipment to test my stb. Possibly a bad 8VSB module...

I did a reboot as stated, holding the power button down for about 5 seconds. That did not help. I will try removing the card and unplugging the unit. I am also going to try removing and reseating the OTA module in the rear.

Anyone else experience a problem with their OTA getting locked into one channel. Such that when I change to different local affiliates, they all display ABC. I turn to NBC, FOX or CBS etc. and it displays ABC only. I am the Atlanta Metro area and would not think this to be a locallized...

Thanks for the input. However, like I said the reboot did not help. I had a couple of lock ups the other night and the reboot cleared that. Any advice? I will probably try unplugging everything tonight and removing the 8VSB (or whatever) module and reseating it. That may initiate some...

Has anyone here had a problem with all locals locking up on one channel? I recently had all the locals displaying ABC. The roboot did nothing for me. CSR could do nothing other than scedule a service call for July 2. Also, this will be the same guy that installed the system. I would not...
