Something is going on the past 2 weeks TBSHD goes out right at 1:30PM AZ time!!

I think it has something to do with the Sun.

Check your state, the time and the satellite and see if it matches what's on the PDF document.

You couldn't foresee this, psychicmind?

You couldn't foresee this, psychicmind?

You do not want to know what I foresee.

Trust me, especially if you are American like me.

One day I might do a side by side reading on the futures of Dish Network vs. DirecTV.

California - I when out about 45 minutes before listed, one day after the "worst".

For California, it says between Oct 2 - Oct 11 so you could still lose it today, tomorrow or until the 11th. Oct 6 was the worst. The time for California is between 1:15 PM - 1:45 PM, your post was at 1:30 PM.

Let us know what happens today around that time.

 

[psychicmind]

Oh, OK - makes perfect sense.

I don't think I would have even thought about it too much if I didn't know people on this site would have all the tech answers.

I certainly did not expert an answer to a 4 minutes outage on only a few HD channels.

San Diego - lost 129 today at 1:25.
Still out as I type this

 

[steve4810]

San Diego - got 129 back at 1:35 but did a channel up/down deal so maybe the "acquiring satellite" wasn't working too well and doing a channel up/down sooner would have gotten it back sooner.

Losing 129 during daylight on 622 - not on 211

Richmond, VA

For the past several days, I have been losing channels during the day on 129 with my 622. The problem goes away after sundown. Funny thing is, I have no problem getting any 129 channel on my 211 at any time. Haven't called Tech Support yet.
