OTA Tuner Not Receiving Some Stations

[n5tc]

HR21 with AM21 using large antenna in the attic. H20 using desktop antenna.

My Am21 will not receive several local digital signals. I have the same result with the OTA tuner in the H20.

I know the channels are there because I receive them hooked up directly to the TV through a converter box.

I have tried rescanning the OTA channels in both cases.

Strange.

If they are not in the guide, the AM21 will not get them. The guide is populated based on your zip code and includes OTA that theroretically, you should be able to receive. Being the digital transition is now occuring, if DirecTV does not have accurate info, then you are out of luck, for now.

To add to William1's post, if your local stations have changed from UHF to VHF or the other way around, and your antenna isn't the right kind, that could keep your H20 from picking them up.
