Help.

As of last Tuesday night - my Boston locals pixelated into nothingness. And right at the end of FRINGE!

I just read D changed satellites or something - but would this effect me? My FOX keeps trying to come back - an occasional weird pixel ghost - and then nothing again.

Could it just be alignment - or did this new switch put me out of the spot beam??

looks like its time for the old red button reset!,if that dont work call D*.

Where exactly (Just zip code) are you? You may be just outside of the spotbeam, but if Boston is your correct DMA, they should correct this.

check your 99s singlals if you have a dvr
for non dvr boxes check 99b signals
there should be 1 or2 transponders in the high 90's if not then you need a tweak and have to call D*
I'm just 30 miles north of boston and had no issues on wednesday morning after the change over

It's the 99s for me....

I have two transponders in the high 90s # 13 & 14... Do you know which ones are supposed to be the high ones?

Most of the other ones are 0.

Any thoughts?

So first, what is your real zip code? And second, what are your signal strengths on 99c (not 99s) - if you are aligned correctly on 99c then your 99s signals will be the best they can be. All the 99 signals (99s and 99c) are from the same point in the sky, and the higher 99s transponders (including 13 and 14 ) are actually from the SAME satellite as the 99c signals.
