Hello Wilt. I got your name from the Voom Help Desk forum, the guys over there said if anyone can help it would be you. Anyways, my problem is with my 2 of my local stations. Almost 2 weeks ago I lost reception with these two channels(I live in Gainesville FL and the stations are WOGX and WGFL). I still get strong signal strengths(above 95 for both)but when i scan the stb will not pick them up. The engineer at WOGX said they just started sending PSIP and WGFL said that they CHANGED their PSIP. I've been watching both these channels since the first day i got Voom(about nine months) with no problems. WOGX has never scanned in when i do a channel scan, I just assumed I picked it up because of my mapping. But WGFL picked up when i did a channel scan(28-1 and 28-2), but now i get nothing. I'm assuming al of this is from the PSIP changes they made. Any help in this matter would be gratly appreciated. WOGX is my local fox staion and I'm having Simpson's withdrawals. By the way I love Voom and will be a customer untill the end(hopefully I'll be long dead)

Are you sure that when you scanned for these channels, and it did not find them for what ever reason, it did not hide them. Go view local channels.

Voom button
Green button
Local Channels
Then make sure they are not hidden then re-scan.

Yeah I'm sure. I've checked that. when the stb is scanning it stops on those channels for about 10 seconds, then goes right over them. I'm still getting program guide info, but i guess that comes from the satellite. But thanks anyway
