Harrisburg/Lancaster, PA HD LILs - video issues lately -
Channels affected -
WHP 21
WHTM 27
WGAL 8
WPMT 43
I've been noticing much more artifacting and green blocky screens lately while watching our HD locals from D* lately. The past 2 few weeks, the condition has been much more frequent than normal and almost unwatchable at times. If need be, I can post screen shots to show the blocky green screens.
When I switch over to OTA, the signals are crystal clear. I go back to D* LIL, and the video still has problems. At one point last evening during the 6pm news on WGAL, it was unwatchable for 4 minutes with green and grey pixelation. The audio continues as normal. Saturday Night Live last week @ 11:30pm (WGAL) was unwatchable for the entire last half hour.
It doesn't seem to be related to anything related to my setup. No trees in the way, no rain/snow. Not quick enough to switch over and get a signal strength reading on 103s transponder 15. Possibly a tweak needed at the DT signal collection site (located at WHP-TV) for this area?
Others in this area running the HR2x (based upon feedback from our local "HarrisburgHDTV" Yahoo email group) are also having this problem. To date, I've received reports from quite a few other D* customers around here with the exact same problems on the various HD LILs provided by D*.
