Has anyone else noticed that there seems to be more pixelization going on lately in the Chicago area? It has happened on the locals more than it has in awhile. I also have noticed it on occasion on SD channels. It happened the other day on Showtime west when Platoon was on. It wasn't on the Showtime HD channel. I reset my receiver but it still came back.

Yes!!!

Yes I am having the same problems and everyone thinks its just me. They say there is no reported problems in the city but me. They are sending me a new receiver and sending someone out to check the signal strength, but I know that is not the problem as signals are in the 90's/


It used to be audio problems, now the pixelation!! Ahhh!!

and they are still taking the HD NY feeds away soon.

I had some pixelization here in Detroit on the local NBC and CBS HD feeds last night too.

Same here in Chicago. Pix-elation on local HD and also some on SD channels. I've noticed that the transponders on the 103 sat. have been changed. My signals are between 95-100 so that's not the problem.

It might be with the Local Receive site in Oak Brook with their feed

I dont know how are they receiving the feeds, either from Fiber, or throught OTA antenna ?
