Signal strength of 57?!?!?!?? What's the deal with that? Picture has been  breaking up.. and when the picture stabilizes, I get a popping in the sound...

Anyone else getting this?

Yes, CBS 1-1 is again disappearing here on the south side of Racine.  I was receiving a watchable signal all winter long.  But, it is now again fading (just like last summer).  I can only hope that WBBM 2-1 out of Chicago resolves it's transmitter problems soon.

I have super strong signal strength but have the popping audio problem.  What's up with that?  No picture quality issues here.

Have totally lost the signal in West Bend, for the past several days. This is after a year of solid reception.

Dont understand it either.I am also picking up 1-4 1-5 1-6,but no picture?What is going on?

Same thing here in Germantown.  Signal strength in the mid to high 80's but no picture or sound on 1-1.  I still get 1-2 thru 1-6.  Started a few days ago.  Initially I would get a "weak signal" notice even though signal strength was in 80's and then the picture would come on but the last two days/nights no picture.

Please note that in this thread, Jim Hall from CBS58 states that 1.1 will be dark; allocating the bandwidth to three simultaneous NCAA games, as well as WMLW and Telemundo 63.

Would this be the same reason that I'm getting nothing on 505 (CBS Hi Def on TWC) right now?  I just checked it out last night and this morning, and it's just a black screen.  Every other HD Station comes in fine.  Just curious, because I just re wired my digital box so that the line to the digital HD Box comes right from the main line outside, so I hope I didn't screw anything up.  I could have swore 505 was working on Monday and Tuesday.

More than likely. If 1.1 is dark, per Jim Hall, I'd take that to mean he's turned it "off" at his place.

TWC is just delivering the content 58 is providing, none.
