Strange PTAT behavior on both my Hoppers

[Jim5506]

Last night both Hoppers recorded all 4 channels for the 3 hours of prime time but in SD.

Hopper2000 has been only recording ABC sometimes SD sometimes HD. HD locals are on 61.5, SD locals are on 110.

Here is the "TV Activity" screen from my Hopper2000:


I enabled PTAT on my Hopper W/Sling and it is being strange also.

Here is tonight's "TV Activity" screen from my Hopper w/Sling:


The Hopper w/sling is only recording ABC HD and it is in HD, just as the screen shows.

Are you in the Lubbock DMA? I can't remember

looks like time to power cycle the hopper.

Yes, I am in the Lubbock DMA.

I have power cord rebooted both Hoppers numerous times.

It looks like Dish is going to swap out my D1000.2 WA/61.5 side dish setup with a D1000.2 EA dish, since all my SD and HD locals are already on 61.5.

It appears Dish has not successfully reprogrammed the Hoppers to be able to handle SD locals on WA and HD locals on 61.5.

I would recommend an EA arch swap until they are able to get the issue with newly launched HD local mixed markets addressed.
