Any one having difficulties receiving this channel lately. I can receive every other channel available with my set up.

The answer to this is highly dependent on where you are. I'm sure you'll get a lot of help here if you tell us where you are. Then people in your area will recognize that they are in your area and can offer help.


After all, I can't get it, either. But I'm in Los Angeles...location is totally relevant!
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.

I live in Toronto and have noticed that over the last couple of days, 9.1 has dropped in signal strength to almost zero for a few hours at a time. Normally, it is one of my strongest and most reliable stations so I think this is temporary. Perhaps they have had troubles with their transmitter.

It was OK last night for me watching CSI Miami - no blips, but there was a bizarre "no signal" situation for about 5 seconds near the end... couldn't figure out whether it was them or my receiver.

CFTO has been doing that lately. Absoulutely no signal, then back to 70%. I think they have it under control. Probably tower maintenance.

You're not alone :)

I wrote CFTO about the problem if I hear anything from them I will let you know. I have not noticed any problems since this morning.

Hmm, good to know. I don't really watch much OTA network TV during rerun season, so last night was the first time I've watched them since last season (I usually just watch cable TV for "general" viewing, but prefer antenna due to higher quality for new scripted shows).

Tonight it was Global all night (since I can't for the life of me receive WIVB right now). I had good signal strength, but getting repeated picture breakups audio dropouts every 4 minutes or so. Even after I tweaked the antenna to a better position those continued unabated.

I'm finding that the CTV HD signal drops between ~12am - ~9am
