This issue has been on the forum before, but has never been resolved, so with fingers crossed, lets try again!
My PVR 501 shows locals in the guide by their OTA channel number (2, 4, 7 ,50, etc.). The 508 purchased last May has never worked this way. Many calls to tech support has had no reesult. Even swapping out the unit (thank you Dish) didn't make a difference.
Two weeks ago the 501 stopped displaying the local station numbers! Again tech support continues to say that they should. They say that it has been turned over to engineering (that was said last August) and that they don't know of anyone else reporting such a problem.
Bye the way, they have led me through every kind of reboot and even deleted the account and re-initialized the receiver to force a complete software reset and guide download..... no difference! Both receivers have the latest software rev.
I know that there are some highly competent teckies on this forum and hope that one of you holds the answer !!!
Hopeful...... Stingray
