I am about 48 miles from the transmitter for most of our channels and about 2 miles for transmitter on 1 station and I have been impressed with reception so far. 14 foot winegard VHF and XG91 UHF into Channel Master 7777.

So I plugged my ota adapter back into my hopper thinking maybe it was a software issue between my hoppers with s230, Now I have S234 same problem. When I have three tuners going and ota, I still cannot access my that hopper from my other hopper so it must be the OTA module itself is defective somehow because no one else has reported this problem. So I will have to wait until they have them back in stock and order another one. 
I believe they've been back in-stock on the Dish website for a few days now. Message DIRT, maybe they can arrange some sort of swap for your existing one.So I will have to wait until they have them back in stock and order another one.
I'm the original poster on this subject. Just had a black OTA screen yesterday... I seem to averaging this issue about once a week. Rescan the locals and it's good for another week, but I have to redo the timers. Never had anything like this with the 722 I had previously. Have any DIRT members responded to this thread?
When I've gotten the black screen, all I did was an unplug reboot. Worked both times I've gotten the black screen. No need to rescan.

THe OTA module has a 1 year warranty Dish should replace this for you.
I haven't seen a black screen since I received S234. I'm not using it for timers but before I would get black screens every day. A rescan fixed it. I did eliminate a local channel that had a weak signal. I don't watch ti anyway.
In their pre-release days, someone probably had the unit unplug itself, so they want to guard against that being a problem.
Since day one I've been getting the wrong guide info in my PBS (WKAR) channel 2. It should show PBS World, but it is just listing a duplicate of the primary PBS channel. Who do I contact?
I've gotten it with S234. Usually when switching ota channels. As I said before, a rescan is not necessary. All I did was a plug reboot and they came back.
