Looks like the Spotbeam for Connecticut is down (Tranponder 20) with a 0 reading. I have contacted a few friends in the area and they are also missing tranponder 20.

Missing from my locals are:

WTIC FOX 61
WVIT NBC 30
WTHN ABC 8
WFSB CBS 3

Everything else is coming in loud and clear here. :)
 
My Lexington, Ky locals went out just after 8pm Eastern and came back around 8:30 pm. The night before they went out for about 3 minutes sometime between 8 and 9 pm (a DVR recording was shortened by that time).
 
Did anyone have similar issues yesterday, around 7-8pm EST ?? I was getting the guide and channel banner but no video and no sound. Two reboots did nothing to help. Tried channels 101, 9900 (the D500 ch), and the D1000 ch too. I got audio on the D500 channel, but no video (it's normally just a static graphic). I ended up pulling the power for 10 seconds and walked away. When I checked at 8:30-9pm, it was all fine.

New DVR Advantage - any details ?
