I can't pick up any OTA right now. I have tried my roof top and an indoor antenna both normally pull all my locals at 90 or so. Now I get 0. Is my STB borked?!?
 
Did you try reboot or plug/unplug stb? Is your local channel mapping in your PG still? If you select a local channel what signal quality OTA you get in the system settings? Do the same for OTA signal strength? What are the numbers. Is there anything in between your antenna the OTA module - like a diplexer? Are your connections all tight?
 
Wierd. They came back this morning. I rebooted 2 times last night. I was getting a big 0 for my OTA signal. Not sure what the heck happened. I tried to Antennas too. So strange. All is well now though.
 
I noted my story in the "Atlanta area voomers" thread. Last week mine went out completely and were gone for a couple days. I rebooted to no avail. I called voom to fix it and they scheduled somebody for 6/22 but i got back in town from being out for 4 days and everything worked great right now. Don't know why it started working again but I'm not complaining. I gotta go cancel that service call...
 
My OTA has been out too for the past two days. I get nothing except one local channel. I tried calling Voom but I give up after awhile of being on hold for forever. I have tried rebooting with no success and I have checked all my connections. The system settings screen shows zero for OTA power and less than 10 for OTA signal strength. I hope it comes back soon. :mad:
 
A booster is always a good idea for OTA reception. I have one even though I'm only 40 miles from the transmitter.
