I'll keep my fingers crossed.  Thanks for the update.

sure it would be nice if we were given an eta on the OTA signal ... I know it's WITI a station that doesn't give a damn about the customers it's supposed to serve.  But still holding on to some hope of customer service.

Tom Snyder

How about an ETA of "now?"

WITI notified us at noon that the signal was back on at 11:00.  Sorry for the delay in posting this, but I just got back in to check my email.

So far an acceptable signal strength with no breakups like I had before... but it's probably just the weather ;)

Thanks for letting us know!

Back on just in time for Jerry Springer, great. Its as good as it was before, now I'm debating whether its to early to ad them to TitianTv to record something worth watching.

easylistener

I could get a picture before and now I am not even close.  Did they change anything?

borghe

same signal strength as it was before. which is decent... (low 70's solid)

Couldn't before, and still Can't.  Obviously there's no boost in power over before.  Maybe they could turn that directional antenna that Gregg was talking about to the North West.   Or they could put a rotor on it and give each of us a turn at receiving them.:p

I'm once again able to pick up channel 33 down here in Elkhorn with my rooftop VU-190...but I can't possibly imagine picking them up from any farther away...I get the occasional breakup even after spending 10 minutes with my rotor fine tuning. Heck, with about 5 more watts of power I'd have a perfect picture; I guess all that's left to do here is wait for full power! :(

GBK

maybe my kids will get to watch in full power :P

I register a faint signal (labelled "bad" on my Zenith HD520 box) but I can't pull in a picture....

Every other digital channel comes in out here perfectly - using an antenna in the attic

rnelson

Before they went down, I was pulling a steady 64% with some drop outs.  Now, the best I see is 56% but is all over the board and just not enough to hold a picture.

Just isn't watchable.

Solid 70% in Germantown with my little indoor radio shack antenna.

Couldn't before, can't now. Only getting about 30% or less in Glendale 53209.
