Previously I had been seeing the "welcome" slide and heard the music. This morning was when I last looked. But now I am getting just the black screen on 498.

Edit: 498 is not working on either tuner. Went back and did the switching tuners trick to be sure.

HR20-700 running 0x19e, H20-600 running 2038

For the first time since it was launched, both boxes give a blank screen on 498. All other tests passed, including checking both tuners on the HR20.

Another post reporting hitting pause brought 498 up, no such luck for me. Repeated pause/play had no effect on the gray screen

Another update: At 1:38 PM MDT 498 is working again

For the first time, I get the black screen on 498. It had worked consistently since it debuted. I even tested it early today, before the 9300/1 channels came back.

Before 9300/1 came back today, everything worked perfectly, including the first test of 9300/1.

After this 2nd test of 9300/1, I am getting a black screen on 498 but everything else works perfectly.

Seems like 498 went dead around the same time the announcement for 9300 and 9301 went back up. I had 498 on, pressed channel down to NASA, then channel up to Golf and then I tried pressing 498 and POOF! It went blank. Everything else works fine though.

3) 480 Yes
4) 481 Yes
5) 9300 Yes
6) 9301 Yes

Would also like to report that the video pixellation and freezing I experienced the other night are gone. Picture looks great. Signal strengths on odd TP's have been fine. Signal strength on Even Tp's has been lower. Ranged from 67 - 80 during last test (Evens). Now ranges from 80 - 95 on Evens. Odd Tp's remain 90 - 95.

Edit: Just changed 498 from Yes to No. Guess I shouldn't have assumed anything. It has always worked before but all I get now is a Black Screen.

Edit: 498 is now working again. Had to wait 10 - 15 seconds for it to light up though.

This was as of about 1:05 pm - not able to check again after that.

I wouldn't worry about it. 498 went off just recently, around the same time 9300 and 9301 went up. Looks like most are experiencing the same thing.

Thanks Earl and D* for getting them back for us.

3) 480 - yes

6) 9301 - yes - DSC HD 1080i full screen - no audio or visual loss - great pq and sound!

As a side note: I have never got 498 - tried every trick on here and more. I purposely did nothing to my box to see if 9300 came up by itself if D* bought them back - and it did. So my theory is as long as all hardware/install is good then when they flip the switch most people will get them without doing anything.

Test Channels 9300/9301 are back on the air... and there is no set turn off date/time. So enjoy them while they last...



This is cool, but I really hope they get turned off Wed morning :)

However 9300 and 9301 showed flaky results. My HR20-100 was on 9301 went upstairs and tuned the 700 to 9301 and got searching for satellite. Went back downstairs and tuned the 100 to 9300. Went back upstairs changed the 700 to 9301 and started working. Went down to the 100 again changed it to 9301 and both are working at the same time.
I'm spent.

1. HR20-700, 19d, no multi-switch
2. 498 - No. although got audio for a second on one tuner. Previously could receive on 1 tuner only.
3. 480 - Y
4. 481 - Y
5. 9300 - Y
6. 9301 - Y

I don't know whether this makes any difference, but I just checked my online statement and it no longer shows any of the extra additions and subtractions made for the previous test.

Here is the scoop



Key Information:

2) 498 No-blank screen
3) 480 y
4) 481 y
5) 9300 y

498=N
480=Y
481=Y
9300=Y, but see below
9301=y, but see below

H20 receives 9300 and 9301 for 1-2 minutes before the picture pixelates. The pixelation starts as a minor issue and quickly degrades to total freeze. After the picture freezes, the unit restarts itself or goes to searching for satellite signal message. Restarting the H20s corrects issues and the cycle starts all over.

I was getting 498 on both receivers until the 9300/9301 channels came back online, the HR20 AFTER the test friday night, NOT BEFORE.

9300 video is out of sync with the audio. 9301 is great.

WEIRD:: Edit at 2:16 PM CST.. 498 is BACK ON on BOTH Receivers! Both came on at the same time! D* must have taken it down!

Well, the HR20-100 in the living room tests fine. I can go from 9300 to 9301 and back again with no problem. I can also go from them to any other station and back again in any sequence.

The HR20-700 in the bedroom, though can get 9300 or 9301, as long as I stop by some other station in between. Looks like tuner 2 is OK, but something is up with tuner 1....it will display a 771 if I try to toggle between 9300 and 9301.

Weird, because eveything tested fine yesterday. Trying a reset.

After reset: no change.
Tried swapping B-band converters. No change.

It fails on either 480 or 481, depending on the sequence I tune in the channels. 498 always comes through without a problem.
