pittsburgh locals

[thekelleys08]

anyone else's pittsburgh locals out? screen says Do not call dish we are aware of the problem. you may continue to watch non local channels.

What does that mean? I have "moved" to get pittsburgh locals, does that have anything to do with it?

I had the same problem when they first put the HD versions on 129, it started conflicting with 118.7 so I put up a wing dish for 61.5 and fixed the problem.

Sorry, I know this is an old thread but last few days we are having issues with our Pittsburgh HD locals off and on being out. Usual Dish screen - "we are aware...yada yada" SD equivalents on 110 are viewable no problem.

Setup is Dish 1000 (WA + 118.7) - HD locals on 129 / SD locals on 110.

Other channels on 129 don't seem to be an issue so I'm not thinking obstructions, etc.

Haven't seen any other mentions here...

What is your signal strength off of satellite 129 transponder 10? There are no known channel issues about this.

Very low. 9 to 10

That is what is causing this issue. The next step would be getting a tech to realign your dish. If you send me a PM with your account information I can set this up.

Pitts Locals are on 61.5 Conus. I didn't know they exist on 129 as well. My HD Pittsburg Locals were working just fine last night on 61.5. I can check them back again tonight.

I checked Pitts Locals on 61.5 last night and it was working just fine.
