Is anybody else having problems getting WXPI-HD, channel 11, and WPGH-HD, channel 53, out of Pittsburgh, PA? I can get every other channel except those 2. My 622 says that it cannot retrieve the channel info when I tune to those channels.

Thanks.

I know there are people from the Burgh in here! :) Anybody else having issues?

Thanks.

I live 55 miles from Pittsburgh in Salem, Ohio, and I receive WPXI-DT and WPGH-DT 24/7 with no dropouts on my 622.

I live about 12 miles from downtown and have no problems at all (HD and SD locals are very clear).

Cool...thanks for the replies. I'm in Akron, Ohio. I have some bushes that may be blocking the view, but I wanted to make sure before I started pruning. :) It's weird that those are the only 2 channels missing though.

You're in Akron and receiving Pittsburgh stations?! Including WTAE-DT, which is 100 miles from southeast Akron? Please tell us about your set up, including your antenna, amplifier, antenna height and your elevation above sea level, which you can check at topozone.com. Thanks.

I'm getting my locals through Dish. I am using my grandmothers zipcode. :)
