Why did CBS-HD East go Black the last two nights after 11pm?

[ScottChez]

I am in a O&O so I get CBS HD East all the time.

Seems like it has been going to a black screen at night.

Are they moving HD channels around then? Is something wrong.


It also seems that when there is a NFL game, the black it out and never turn it back on till the next day.

Is this normal?

WCBS here in NYC conserves power at night and shuts off CBSHD.

 

[Tonedeaf]

Yup, been that way since they added CBSHD to D*. Always right in the middle of Letterman.

 

[ScottChez]

I did not know that. Thanks

I have only had CBS HD for 2 weeks now.

 

[chrisb]

It's not just D*. You can't get it OTA in NYC either after 11pm or so every night.

 

[ScottChez]

So since CBS HD is turned off by CBS, is there anyway to get CBS HD west when my O&O is MN (Central Time).

I would rather have CBS West, the more HD the better I say, more HD hours of programming when I am home watching TV

CbsHd east is still on E* later in the evening...

I wish Letterman would start broadcasting in HD

 

[fkostyn]

Didn't letterman used to broadcast in HD?

I dont know if it has anything to do with Directv's CBS feed going out but CBS is working on their Ant and their OTA feed has been affected. CBS has been doing transmitter and antenna mast work this past week. The drop-outs and low signal strength have been caused by this work which also is effecting Directv's East feed and Cablevisions CBSDT feed. Hopefully everything will be back to normal for football this weekend.
