Has anyone heard whether or not they fixed whatever they were having trouble with? What a disappointment that's going to be if they don't!!!:(

I'm not sure if that's what I wanted to hear??? I don't have Comcast HD and was referring to WJLA's OTA signal......would that be the same signal that Comcast would receive and then rebroadcast, or do they receive a different signal from WJLA?

THINGS AREN'T LOOKING GOOD!!! I went to check out and see if Mission Impossible was in HD on WJLA here in DC tonight (saturday).....and not only was it not in HD.....there wasn't even a signal!?!?! My (and all other DC area OTA HD viewers) only hope is that they have everything shut down in attempt to get things fixed before the big game tomorrow......I'm still keeping my fingers crossed.....but this isn't looking pretty! :(

Let WJLA know you're PO'd about their DTV signal problems. From their webpage (www.wjla.com), scroll to the bottom and select Contact WJLA. An email form will come up. Select the WJLA general manager in the TO field. Explain your displeasure with their DTV broadcast, let them know how much you'll miss watching their future programming if they cannot get their act together today.

Thanks for the updates!!!:D The games only hours away now.....and I can't wait! It's been a while since my boys in Silver and Black have made it to the big game.....too bad its against such a good team??? I think as long as they can keep from giving up any turnovers that will give the Buc's offense - if you can call it that :p - good field position they will come out on top. They also need to watch the COSTLY penalties I've grown accustomed to watching them make.....those aren't going to fly against a quality team like the Buc's! Hope everyone enjoys this one!!!
