    New subchannel 51.3 in Puerto Rico (Sonrisa TV, kids channel)

    None that I know of. I've been tuning to channel 26 every day, hoping to find a signal, with no luck. At this stage, I don't know if anyone knows when they are coming back. And I don't think Dish will offer locals in HD before we see them OTA. I hope I am wrong.

    Hi If you have not heard the news by now, there is a new kids channel in Puerto Rico, Sonrisa TV, subchannel 51.3, a joint effort with some of the most recognizable faces in kids entertainment on the island. Even though it is not super hi-tech (and obviously they can't compete budget-wise with...

    Puerto Rico channel 26 status

    I've been scanning for this channel (26.1, 26.2, 26.3) and can't get it. Does anybody knows when it is coming back (if ever)? It went off the air last september, and, last I heard, they were working with some antenna troubles, or something similar. Any info would be appreciated.

    I think someone posted about contacting Dish EPG people, that there was something they could do to activate the EPG, but I cannot find that post. If someone remembers the contact numbers... On another note, does anyone knows if anything changed with the signal from ch. 26, strength or...

    New PuertoRico CW local26 with no Audio

    Yeah, it was jumpy yesterday with good signal OTA and in the local from Dish. Right now I have audio and video but with the low signal I am losing the picture constantly. Can't fault the source for my low signal, though, I need to re-peak...

    I believe it should be after. In my case, since I needed to feed 3 TVs, I added a three way splitter after my combiner (backwards splitter) and that resulted in getting my signal strenght down considerably. So maybe I will look at that option (pre-amp) later on. I really don't want to add one...

    New PuertoRico CW local26 with no Audio

    Hi I got choppy picture but it is because I seem to have low signal. Same on CW. That means I need to tweak more........ not too happy. 211 seems to be so picky about signal. My Vizio and my Digital Stream converter on other TV maintain their picture....

    I don't have any signal. It's 9:50 pm. Pedro, are you receiving this channel? I am almost going to do what you did and combine two antennas. I'll let you know how it goes. Where did you get your little UHF antenna? Cost?

    Nice that it is working for you, Pedro. :up I am still tweaking with channel 6, which looks ok everywhere but on my 211 it just drops signal. While this drop ocuurs for every tv, all other converters or tuners manage to stay viewable, the 211 goes to "lost signal" for a second, then comes back...

    As far as I know, you need to separate the antennas so they don't interfere with each other reception. And you need to use a splitter, connected backwards. And a lot of luck. :) These are two sites, somewhat technichal, with a LOT of detail: Merging feedlines Combining or Stacking Two...

    Didn't think I would let this rest as it was, did you? ;) OK, here is the latest: Went ahead and bought an omnidirectional antenna, the Winegard MS-2000 (amplified). Installed it and check my reception and.. not so good, no channel 2 or 4. A little tweaking and then I lost channel 6 also...

    Thanks for the info, Nel! I am trying to decide if investing in a good onmi antenna would help. If someone has an omnidirectional antenna installed and can post their signal strenght, I would appreciate it.
