I am enjoying the test pattern. (I know, get a life) Its showing just exactly what adjustment my set needs. I have sort of a trapezoid problem.

Tom, is your Panny still tuning these two in?

I actaully have an RCA DTC-100... Channel 10 is coming in real strong, Channel 4 isn't on the air at the moment. BTW... you're looking for 4 on channel 28 and 10 on channel 8, right?

 

I am in the heart of Wauwatosa about a mile or so from CBS.

While their studios are over on Hawley Road, I believe their tower is down in the RF valley... Capitol Drive by the river.. not that either location is closer to germantown.

Yup... I'm using 28 & 8. Glad to hear your not getting 4. That makes me feel a little better. Not sure what is happening with 10 for me. I'll keep checking.

I'm now getting 10-1, 2, 3, 4 & 5. Don't know what was going on earlier. I guess it's possible the weather was affecting reception. Looks like 4-1 is still off the air however.

They're off the air everyday from the end of Leno or Sat Night Live until 6PM.

Recent exceptions: Olympics and the Dallas Mavericks v Lakers game on Superbowl Sunday afternoon.

[Tom Snyder]

Any idea when they might test a real program?

Ah ha.. Well, that would explain it then. I'll give them a check here shortly and hopefully all will be well. Thanks.

Signal strength: unknown but good enough
Antenna: Radio Shack ??-120, attic
Your question: not understood -- comes in as channel 1 with 5 sub-channels

My question for you: are the test patterns reliable at this time for set-adjustment, or are you guys adjusting your own stuff to the point where your patterns should not be used?

[shawn123]

Is testing going 24x7, because I am getting nothing in Franlkin Sunday at 2:00 pm?

[Ty Zucker]

Could someone refresh my memory on how to get channel signal strength on the DTC-100?  It's been so long since I've looked.

Menu/Assistance/Antenna Info

You need to have done a signal scan to have the channel show up here.

(Thats's Menu/System Options/Channel Search)

I was picking up 46 at 100% yesterday getting the test pattern on 1-1 and the SMTE color bars on 1-2.  Today I was only getting 3 to 6 signal strength and no picture.  I'm picking up channels 8 and 28 at 100% each.

Location - Pebble Valley in Waukehsa
Antenna - Radio Shack U-120R w/pre-amp
Set top box - Toshiba DST-3000

Ok:

I'm in Cedarburg.  I have a Toshiba TN50x81, DTC-100, and an old rooftop antenna.
As of right now, I'm getting 96 for signal strength on the test pattern showwing on 46-2.    I get no picture on 46-1.  Are others?
