Hi everyone! I've got a completely off-topic post over here http://www.satelliteguys.us/showthread.php?t=66264 and a heads-up to those in the Arden Arcade area. Several people on our street have gotten their cars broken into the last few days (and mine was stolen early this morning). ***...

Thanks! Sounds like they are more stable now (which is good because the recovery time used to be about 10 minutes or so if you had to force a hit and also re-aquire the channels). I'm glad channel changing is faster too (I guess I've "borrowed" that male trait :D). I'm waiting to see what's...

Hi Tobar! Dang, that's too bad if they are being slow with the HD rollout, but I'll probably stay with it for a bit in the meantime to see what's going to happen with the other services. I have a couple of questions if that's okay. Which STB do you have, the Philips or the new one (Amino?)...

Another possible (future) alternative HD source for the Sacramento Area I'm going back to SureWest cable on the 30th. I was with them as a sub (and also helped them troubleshoot stuff when they first launched and for a bit afterwards) when they were originally WinFirst and for a while after...

Thanks! The service call fixed it all up (signal strength back to normal). The windstorm had knocked it a bit out of alignment. (from AVS) KOVR-DT was down for a while but it's back up again, so you should be able to see it now.

The service call is done and it's back in the 90's (mid to high). The dish was slightly off. That's actually pretty good, that it took *that* strong of a storm to cause wonkyness . :)

Hi! Is anyone else in the Sac area getting a huge drop in sat signal strength these last few days from what you normally get? For me it's usually around the low to mid-90's in clear to slightly overcast, 80's in light rain or fog but lately it's averaging in the 70's, enough to break up or lose...

Hi! Another update on 40.2. It was actually discontinued (see the linked thread to AVS above) even though it still shows up in the guide as an available channel. To get the Spanish audio feed for 40.1, you'll need to select it: I can't tell right now if this is working or not but it's located...

Update- 40.2 is broadcasting right now so I'm wondering if it's the tuner issue (linked above). I was doing fine with the 18" until the rain started, so you'll probably want to upgrade it as soon as you can if you have any problems. Yeah- I noticed more gals too! Pretty cool!

(continuing from the other thread) I'm checking on AVS about the 40.2 problem. I'm not getting it either (not showing up with a re-scan, but it's still in my original map). It may have to do with Motorola VOOM STB Program Channel Paradigm Issues . See post #10 for how it could affect...

Kaysadeya, that sounds familiar.

So far so good with the 24". Haven't had any really heavy rain yet, but we're not losing signal in light to moderate rain.

Sacramento, yep on the rain fade. The 24" dish was delivered yesterday and it's supposed to be installed today.

I sent an email to the engineering dept about it (we'll see if I get a response, I've emailed them about KQCA before (same tower) and it's been ignored). Someone on AVS said they're not getting it either. Edit -looks like it was region-wide, but KCRA-DT is back up now (as of about 2:40).

You're welcome! Here's a direct link to the Sac area reports. It's a good place to tell if a problem with a channel is widespread.

I'm in Sac and yep, 3's down for me too. I'll ask about it on the AVS local reception forum.

Channel 58's been kind of flaky the last couple of weeks. It's usually on 58-1 then went out for a few days (but someone AVS reported seeing it on 58-2 for a bit). Before it went down was having some issues (lots of dropouts and synch problems). A few days ago it came back up and I've been...

Yep! Right here.

>>>I have some more questions for you if you don't mind.<<< Sure! >>>>1. Did Crave Electronics contact you before the install date to confirm the install or did they just showed up the day of the actuall install? <<<< My husband called them on Thursday to confirm. >>>>2. Did you...

It went well and the guy from Crave was very nice.

Yadnus, I'm in Sac and my install is scheduled for today. I'll let ya know how it goes.
