CH 10 HD Help

**HarleyD** · 17-08-08, 05:16 AM

Hi all just in the last two weeks or so ch.10 HD gets very blocky and then disappears altogether and says no or bad signal. Funny thing is this only starts about 3pm ish everyday and 9 HD occasionally any ideas please.

yes, u have a weak signal

**HarleyD** · 17-08-08, 07:58 AM

signal is 80% should it be 100% ?

**oceanboy** · 17-08-08, 08:10 AM

No, 80% is fine. Do you lose pics at 80%?

i noticed this the other night on all 10 channels in melbourne...i think the cats may have been playing behind the entertainment centre and knocked one of the antenna cables going into either the PVR or the plasme? Check all cables.

dont forget that the problem could be anywhere in the link from China to Timbuctoo not just on your end.
By all means check your gear is OK but ask if others are experiencing similar problems in your area.
There was a case where a broken cable was degrading the signal on a local translator but of course the channel (office located 100's of km's away) said it was 'working perfectly' untill enough complaints got them to check it.

I learn something new everyday here.

You mean to say that they havent outsourced the television signal from China along with the TV set, the HDDPV,DVD player and home entertainment unit??
I thought that was why Ron Wilson was looking very 'Bhudda' like reading the news from downtown Beiijing, err sorry, Ultimo by the Yangtze.
