NBC 4-1 Scrambled since Digital Conversion

I'm looking for help with channel 4-1 OTA on a Dell W2600 LCD.  I installed an antenna direct db2 last year and have gotten perfect reception on my 3 digital tv's (located in basement, main level and upstairs bedroom).  

However, since the digital conversion, I've lost 4-1 on my upstairs Dell lcd.  4-1 comes in very nicely on the other two television (newer panasonic plasma and samsung lcd).  The Dell is the oldest unit by far (probably 2005 or 2006).  

4-1 on the Dell appears scrambled.  Audio works.  I've rescanned several times and walked through the menus without success.

Any suggestions?  

Thanks in advance,

Kelly

Deleting all the channels on the Dell don't just do a re scan after you delete them cycle your set of and on and rescan. Had the same problem on a Samsung LCD. Read something about how the tuner maps the channels ya da ya da. Give it a shot let me know if it works.Peace:)

I am pretty far out Oconomowoc. And I get 100% signal. A signal can be to strong causing drop outs. FYI

Try a scan with the antenna disconnected. Then power-cycle the tv, reconnect the antenna, and scan again.
