From last 4 days I have lost the OTA Transmission of WBAP/ABC 8-1 transmission. This is the only channel I am not getting after repetitive scans. I am using good Channelmaster antenna.
I have a Channel Master 4228HD antenna up here in Frisco; will check and see if 8-1 is still coming in when I get home tonight. I don't watch a lot of TV so I may be having the same problem and simply am not aware of it.
I just found this notice at the station's website; no idea how long it's been there, but it could be related:
quote:"You may have noticed a difference in the picture during some recent newscasts. WFAA has experienced a rather significant technical malfunction with some equipment. We are in the process of replacing it. For now we are on a back up, however will have it corrected very soon. In the meantime, thank you for your patience."
Lastly, if I recall correctly, 8-1 is the only OTA channel in the area that's broadcast on the VHF band instead of UHF. VHF is typically more difficult to receive by smaller antennas or those that weren't designed for VHF reception. This may or may not be related. -- "The counsel of fools is all the more dangerous the more of them there are." -Ólafr Höskuldsson
