I live in Wichita, Kansas. I have an LG plasma tv with builtin DVR. Over the weekend, I noticed that my TVGOS info ends with listings for about 4:00AM tomorrow; leaving the TV off overnight did not update. Does anyone have info as to whether there is a feed problem in my area? Does this happen sometimes?
And, as an afterthought, when I searched the forums for info on TVGOS, I see the issues are spread across several; is there a way to make TVGOS a forum?
TVGOS halted service in some markets over the past two weeks, but I don't know if Wichita, Kansas is among those affected.

Unfortunately, I think I've discovered the problem. I have a cable card in the TV; I have Cox Cable; Cox has been moving some analog channels to "digital"; our PBS affiliate just got moved. So, I need to figure out how to get the data. I assume I am stuck having to get the analog signal off the air, which will be tough with the TV in the basement. Any other ideas?

I am pleased to report I solved the problem with my TVGOS on the LG 50PC1DR.
I had correctly determined the source of the problem to be remapping of my PBS affiliate to the digital part of my cable card. I couldn't get a good off-air signal in my basement, but I used a splitter to send a cable signal both to the CATV input and the Antenna input on my TV; that way I end up with an analog signal from the cable as well. It took days, but the data is all current now.
