MDP 130 won't tune CBS

This is a good idea as people interested in what is happening in Tampa typically only subscribe to that thread and would never have read your post, linked here since the moderator merged it into your local thread.


I would recommend you visit your post and subscribe to your local thread so you can see if someone answers your post or view other things of interest in your local area.


Actually someone did answer your post and provided a channel list file for you to try both OTA and QAM.

did you try the channel list that hdtvfanatic posted for you in response to your post in the local thread?? :

I just checked it with the a MyHD 130.


It coming in fine.


With the cold weather over the last week, its possible you are having a thermal problem somewhere on the line.


HOWEVER, last I checked Channel 10 was on QAM 106 at 687Mhz - MUCH higher than the other Stations you mentioned. However, WEDU is on the same QAM. You did not mention any of the WEDU Channels. Are you getting them?


If you are getting WEDU's 3 channels, then its a MyHD issue.


If you are not getting WEDU's 3 Channels, I would suggest that your high end is probably loosing signal gain and that's why you cannot get CBS or WEDU. You need to call BHN and get them on a service call to check and balance the line.


One more test - I have uploaded the Channel file for a MyHD 130 for Over The Air on Ant1 and BHN on Ant 2. As AVS will only take certain file types, download the file MyHDCHList.txt and save it to your hard drive. Rename the extension from .txt to .mcl.


Then go into MyHD and open up Channel Settings - Hit Load and point to this saved file.


As I have manually editted it, all you have to do is tune to Ant 2 (make sure your BHN Cable is on Ant 2) and hit 610. It should bring in CBS. If it doesn't then it's clearly the cable connection. Also try the same for WEDU on 603, 604 or 605.


Quite Honestly, I don't really use a MyHD with Brighthouse - only OTA so the channel settings might not be complete and some might have been moved since the Summer when I last editted this file - but it will find WEDU and CBS for you if you have the signal.


And for anyone wondering how I got the BNH Channel Mapped numbers instead of the QAM numbers, I did a scan and made sure I had all the information in the MyHD Software - saved the file to disk and manually editted the .mcl file. Then I simply reimported the file with the Channel Mapping in place.


Also, even though the HD Encrypted Channels are noted, they obviously will not come in with the MyHD Card as it cannot decrypt the signal on these.
