View Full Version : Another TS-360 Problem Question

I got the 360 about 6 weeks ago From D*. Everything has been fine except for one reception problem.

We've got a PBS station here in the Kansas City area that has 5 separate channel signals going out. 1 SD and 4 HD. Using an attic mount antenna, I receive the SD fine. On the guide after I scanned it through setup, it came up with the SD and 2 of the HD's. The 2 HD's that are on the guide are showing up to 65% signal strength, and as low as 10%, varying up/down with variations in the signal. But, I have no picture or sound on either one. The searching for signal flag comes up, and flashes on and off. This is the only channel(s) that I've had this problem with. The rest of the OTA HD locals either have perfect pic and sound or no signal at all because I can't receive them anyway.

I'm about 40mi. away from the transmitters on all my locals.

Any ideas?

Maybe they weren't multicasting/broadcasting at the time you were watching?
Or... 40miles for an attic mount is kind of 'pushing it'. You may need to go on the roof.
