That is done by the individual station. THEY get the information for their programming. THEY publish it (to both providers and their PSIP). MVPDs just need to collect it and pass it along.

Assuming they're automated, the people getting ready for the 5AM local news are getting ready for the 5AM local news. They're not going to pay close attention to what's on air. That's not their role. OR, if they've noticed, there's not a lot they can do except report it. If you're really...

So the distortion is still happening even with the splitter bypassed? Then yes, you need to look at other issues. 75 miles away is pretty big ask IMO.

I thought about mentioning that, but thought it might confuse issues. You are correct of course. I'm ASSUMING the test of bypassing the splitter is successful, which means either the splitter is going bad (not likely) or it's cutting the signal too much for the receiver.

First, you are TOTALLY wrong regarding how much a 3.5db loss is. db is logarithmic. If you cut something by 3 db, you've cut it in half. If you've added 3db, you've doubled it. This is not "probably", it's fact. The Decibel Measurement: A Ratio of Relative Strength - LiveAction Second...

Well, every split cuts the signal strength in half. A four way split cuts it in half twice, so you're down to 25%. Because of it being a digital signal, the quality is perfect. Until it's not. Thats commonly called "the digital cliff". As you approach the cliff, you get macro blocking and...

...problem. You can look at the signal meter, but don't put a lot of stock in that. That splitter is cutting the signal TO 25% for each output. *IF* bypassing the splitter solves your problem, you need another amplifier just before the splitter. Splitters used to have how many db drop...

So the dish goes to the receiver via the in wall coax. Receiver feeds TV2 via in wall coaxh You don't say how TV1 is fed. I don't believe Hopper has a Coax output (to feed ANY TV). So you'd need to convert (either composite, component, or HDMI) to Coax (RF modulator). Then you'd either need...

$89 INCLUDING fees. So, $89 is what the final bill is. $97 PLUS fees. So the bill will be more than $97. So the real math is ($97 + fees) - $89 = something more than $8.

I find it easier to just find another show to watch if the lip sync is bad enough to bother me. Even if I had presets, "Oh, I'm watch channel 227, I need preset 1." I watch my show, turn everything off, then go to bed. The next day, the better half gets up, turns on the TV and goes to channel...

I hope they found SOME solution in the last 20 years. ETA: Even if this was a current a problem, adding a dedicated audio delay isn't going to work for an intermittent problem. Unless the user has some way to turn it on/off. Then you'd have to remember to turn it on/off when you go away from...

Did you reboot the receiver? I would think it's either the receiver or the tuner. Rebooting the receiver should restart both of them. You could reseat the tuner and leave the receiver on. I'm guessing it's not a cable issue. That would explain channel pixelization and drop out, not changing...

Did you ever try hooking up the antenna feed to the TV and having it scanning for channels?

But are they HD? ;)

Who doesn't have locals?

1080 vs 720 doesn't really matter on compression. You can take a 1080 signal, only dedicate 1Mb to it, and it will look like crap. Same with 720.

Can you connect a splitter and also feed the antenna to the TV as well as Dish? This is more for troubleshooting. Then, when you have the loss of signal message, switch over to the TV and see if it's having problems. I'm guessing, based on the "multiple channels" issue, it's probably cabling...

*I* understand that. Just saying it might be worth it to temper OP's expectations.

I'm not sure how to suggest this, but if he's picking up the signals relatively well with a cheapy indoor, I would think you don't want too strong of an outdoor antenna. I agree a better antenna would be needed (ideally the local stations never break up), but getting TOO much signal to the TV...

Just to be clear, this is what the connection from the OTA antenna should look like: Assuming it's connected to the Dish receiver, you unscrew it from there (don't get confused with the line coming from the satellite dish) and connect it to the TV (there should only be one spot to connect it on...

Speaking as someone who cut the cord a year ago (after 20+ years with Dish), while you don't have rain fade to deal with, if your internet goes out, you might have to jump through some hoops to watch TV (at least on large screens). Anything cellular connected should still be good.

Thank you. Principle is still the same. I'm fairly confident Dish is brining in the 1.0 signals, no real reason to get the 3.0, much less send on to customers.

What is 'tpt"? Are they the owners? Second, the way the conversion to ATSC 3.0 generally works is one station in the market will become the "light house". They shutoff their ATSC 1.0 transmitter. They ship (probably via fiber, possibly microwave) some of their signals to other stations...

Other channels (locals & Nick) had no issues.
