This Tivo and the wiring and the whole setup have been functioning flawlessly for 1.5 years. Is this something that can happen over night for no reason?

Also, the mentions of the attenuator are for a different scenario:

If you are having pixelization issues on a certain channel that the tivo reports with a signal level of 99-110, that might be worth trying. Tune to the channel and adjust the dial.
My signal level is 90-96 but drops as low as the mid-50s. That's a different problem.

no problem..was just trying to help, Verizons signal is hot, tivos have signal amplifiers, to much signal from verizon can play havock with Tivo, - atenuators reduce the signal from Verizon and Tivo's seem to work better as a result. At least thats whats been posted in this forum in the past!

Thanks, didn't mean to dismiss your post. You were spot on. Seems the colder weather is probably pushing my normally ok signal a bit too hot for my S3 Tivo.
