I say "1 and 1/2" because one OTA channel is gone completely... shows "0%" strength, and the other channel shows "0" for a brief second and then switches back to it's normal strength of 74-75%.

The channel that is out completely usually comes in around 89-90%.

My 3rd major that I usually get OTA is operating normally, coming in instantly at 97%

Seems strange that one of the OTAs is unaffected, one is partially affected and one is completely "gone."

AFAIK, I do not have the update yet. I did a re-scan as well as unplugging, but neither did any good.

Any ideas?
 
Actually, it turns out is is BOTH of the stations. The one station (from what a few others in the area tell me) ALWAYS takes that second or so to lock in. I never notice because everything I watch on there is recorded. The one that's completely out turns out the station is waiting for a part (during the Final 4 no less).

One thing I have noticed on both of my 622s -- if you go to the channel that "isn't there" and see the yellow screen and then go to any other station, the 622 cuts out and has to be reset. Wierd.
