so, got D* reinstalled sunday. Because I saw that in my old address (50 miles) away the locals included the cw I 'moved" back to the old house. It worked fine for the whole week. Then last night it couldn't find the locals anymore and gave me error 771. I called and we tried troubleshooting. System couldn't find sat 99(b) so tech said "that's the problem cause that's where your locals are coming from. Said I'd need a tech visit. Got transferred. since I "moved" I had to then "move" back to actual address. Once that happen boom, got the HD locals back for my actual address!
Today I called again to "Move" back. Lost channels again! Found out that sat 99(b) is not even on (so CS guy had no clue what he was talking about). Moved back...
got the HD locals back.
What is going on??? I know these channels are spot beam but 50 miles away should still be ok( Considering I still got it for a whole week and if I input an address just 10 miles away that's the local I'd get!). Was anybody else experiencing problem with Sacramento locals yesterday??
