535 acquiring signal

[Yragha]

Dish must have recently did an overnight update for the Wally because now their messing with my "rooftop antenna" TV viewing.

Before whenever we had inclimate weather I could watch my locals "uninterrupted" however now the screen darkens and the 535 message sits smack dab in the middle of the screen.

This is unacceptable. Storms around, no satellite TV and now my locals are interfered with.

Annoying and shame on you Dish.

HERE'S A PIC OF A "LOCAL" ROOFTOP DELIVERED CHANNEL.

What is your current software version on the Wally?

Try running a check switch and letting it reacquire the sats

OK ok ok, I have to be missing it. Anyone point me in the menu where to go? I'm of course in settings, diagnostic but still amiss.

If you are speaking of Check Switch, from the Diagnostics screen go to Dish and then Test Installation...

Thank you. I believe back in the day it actually said "check switch".

Yeah, with the new CUI, why would they want to make anything easy!

Alright, results showed all green check marks for all three satellites 110,119 & 129.

I still can't understand why that box would pop up on local "rooftop antenna provided" channels though. The new update possibly?

Great, here we go again. Same message on my antenna provided locals during a rain storm. What gives!

I just saw this in another thread. I am not sure if it applies to your situation, but I thought I would pass it along.

Wallys are odd. Sometimes when they stick on the Acquiring Signal screen, it;s because the guide is downloading in the background

If it continues to happen try this. When you are watching off the antenna in bad weather make sure the last channel watched that was not a satellite channel. Switch between a couple of locals. A similar problem in reverse used to happen many years ago. If a local lost reception that you had just watched but you now were watching satellite you would lose the satellite signal. The fix was to switch between two satellite channels so the last channel watched was not off the antenna.

I just had this exact same issue happen today with my Wally. (U441)
I agree, this is very annoying.
