Sacramento HD locals

[lazydogmot]

Hi, when trying to tune in the HD locals, I get a screen saying it is trying to find the signal from 110 TP 18. Then the screen changes to "Sorry for the interruption. There is no need to call us. We are working to have this channel back as soon as possible."
I used to get all of them, now I can't. I am glad all my locals are not switching to DTV today or I would have no locals to watch.
I do have a weak signal here where I live in the hills. But, the signal is in the green and locked around 30 for both TP 18 and 20 (SD).
Can anyone tell me if the Sacramento locals are going to be switched to Ciel-2 129?
Any suggestions?
Tom

Tom,

Im getting my locals ok aand my signal strength is only 21/22 on spotbeam tp18 , so dont think it's the satellite. I assume you tried a checks switc, power off and reset.

Maybe the recent storms knocked your dish off alignment.

Hello again, I am still having a problem with my Sacramento HD locals. I am getting the same message that I stated above. It's raining today but I have a SS of 38-39 on 110 TP 18. That should be good enough to get a picture. Are they really having a problem that they are working on?

You need a service call.

If the following message is true, what would a service call do?

"Sorry for the interruption. There is no need to call us. We are working to have this channel back as soon as possible."

I am getting other HD channels from 110 and from other satellites. Just not my local HD's. My local SD's are fine.

I think that screen is bogus, i think it just comes up when the signal is lost, i lost mine tonight for about 3 mins, but it came back - rain fade i suspect.
As was said above i think you need to get a service call.
Good luck
