Since yesterday (Thurs.) my 811 will simply not tune to my NBC local WDIV. No matter how I try, it just goes into a reboot, finds a sat, and sits back on the chan I started at. Signal strength seems fine. The 942 on the big set works fine. All my other OTA locals also work fine. Sure, I can watch NBC in SD from the dish supplied locals, but something isn't right. I've tried power cycling the box already. This is an owned box, sure hope I don't have some wierd single channed bug on it, I was hoping to get a few bucks for it when I upgrade to vip boxes! Any ideas?
Thanks!

Is that line amped or are all of the ota lines amped? Is it only the one ota channel your having issues with?
 
Getting worse

This morning I tried another OTA channel, now I am stuck in a reboot loop. Cant get to a program guide, menu, or squat. I do not believe I am amped at all. The header info comes on screen for the station for a minute, then reboot. CRAP I gotta call DISH!
 
Replacing the box

Yes, thanks, you are correct, sir. Just to follow up, they are sending a replacement box.
