Has anyone else had ATSC reception problems on KNBC-DT in Los Angeles?


I'm getting a signal strength that varies from the mid-60's to the mid-70's, yet I get periodic sound and video breakups. It was bad enough to force me to the NTSC broadcast of the game. I do not have this breakup problem on any other digital channel unless the signal strength is less than 50. This was particularly noticeable during the Nets-Celtics game yesterday. I'm wondering if others are seeing the same or if I am the sole person with this problem.

I'm in the flats of Sherman Oaks with an excellent shot at MT Wilson. I've had similar problems with KNBC DT. All other stations are terrific.

Sherman Oaks here also.


KNBC seem to have had more than their fair share of encoder problems over the last few months. That said, I rarely have problems late at night with the 11pm news, Leno or Conan. They could be keeping the transmitter power low until time for their one and only HD broadcast.
