103°B Am i screwd? / Directv New HD Stuff

[rds1957]

When I do a sat reset, 99 fails. When I do a signal strength reading, I get a 33 for tp 3. On 103b, my readings range from 30's to 60's. Do I need to repeak my sat?

Something Happend guide changed at 6am

Hey all I'm new here, but have been following along for some time now. I live in the north east area and have been getting my hd locals in the 80 - 90 channel range. Well this morning I was also getting them in the 2-7 range, and when I checked the guide each one of those channels are mirrored with there sd counterpart. This is the only change I noticed and I've been reading that there is a delay on the roll out, is any one else noticing this change on there locals. Also is it possible that the new hd locals I'm now seeing are mp4 cause I know that the old ones weren't.

My current 103b:

You might try and peak it a bit.

are you getting your hd locals from directv? it sounds like you were watching one of the ny or la feeds if the channels were in the 80's. i wasn't aware of any hd local rollout anywhere. where are you located?

and welcome to satguys!!

Thanks, I am in the New York area and I have been getting my locals from directv. Until today I was only getting the hd version in the 80's.

Then either you had the wrong receiver and or dish, or you were doing something wrong for more than a year. Welcome to MPEG4.

I think if Directv keeps jerking us around with these HD Channels, we may have another case like we did when PS3 got released. People killing over them.
