Error Code:05, Error Code: 04, Pixel Issue

TRy doing a signal search with the Rabbitears search map:

This will give us an idea of potential problems.

You may be near the "digital cliff" with this channel.

Looks like I am near the "digital cliff" per this website. My CW channel IS listed as POOR and if the signal does drop at 9:00 for this channel, then it could then change to BAD. It doesn't explain why Dish shows the signal strength of 100% for CBS for those times I got the same error codes at 9:00.
 

Charlie, you are such a sweetie but I can't accept the offer of borrowing an adapter. I will pull my paperwork and see what Dish has to say. Thanks.

If you are not using the DVD recorder while you want to record CW on your Hopper, bypass the splitter and connect the coax directly to the Hopper for those recordings.

If I had my DVD recorder connected I would connect it to the output from the Hopper and not use a splitter at all.

Splitters cut your signal strength by slightly more than 1/2.

Last night there was no issue recording Supergirl on my local CW channel. I waited 3 minutes into the program to see if it was recording on the DVR and the signal strength. To my pleasure it was recording and it recorded the entire hour with no error code. The signal strength was 88 and the earlier Batwoman recorded and that signal strength was 89.
