Local guide info

[Gregg Lengling]

I just recently lost the guide info that Directv beams down for the local OTA channels on one of my receivers. I really relied on that info as the newspaper guides don't have everything. My Sony SAT-HD300 shows everything perfectly, but all of a sudden my Sony SAT-HD200 doesnt'. I tried a reboot by unplugging the unit for a 1/2 hour, which it then went thru a channel rebuild, but no joy, the only guide info is for Directv channels and none of the OTA's (either analog or Digital). Of course it's not important for the analogs as I get them from Direct so the info is there for them, but the antenna analogs and the Digitals have no program information

Anyone else having this problem.

TIA

check the menu of the reciever and see if there is a place to enter your zip code

IT's in there as it always has been that is the first thing I always check.

One thing I did when my samsung went screwy is I went through and delete all local channel info, reset the reciever, then re-added it - solved my problem that way

There should be a channel scan function to add the channels into your guide. Not 100% sure that will help since I haven't had to instruct anyone to use it before, just remember seeing it in my wealth of info at work.

I did another complete reboot and went to the download and select networks for guide info and reset it for my local area and now everything is back. Sometimes it pays to do it twice....
