1. Do a factory reset on your receiver.
2. Then go through the OTA antenna set up process.
3. At first it only picked up the old channels that gave me the searching for signal error. I let it set for about 15 minutes, and went back and it once again shows two 6-1s and two 6-2s. This time both showed in the guide, one of each worked and the other was still searching for signal. I went to a custom favorite setup and shut off the 6-1 that read WKMGDT and the 6-2 one that read WKMGDT2. Now I have 6-1 WKMG-DT and 6-2 LATV in my favorite #1 guide and they both work OK.
This may also work to get it back in your HR10-250. I have one in the closet but don't use it, just use the H10 and my two HR20-700s.

I think you should be seeing "LATV" for 6-2 on frequency 26 based on what I saw yesterday on my HR10-250. WKMGDT2 is the artifact from Frequency 58.
I have never had antenna on it, but I will go try and report back what I see.

Also, very specifically, you reported in previous post that you did a "factory reset" on your HR10. What did you do? There are several "clear and delete" options for the HR10. I still have no guide data for my 6-1 (freq 26). I am very curious what my HR10 is going to do at 8pm tonight. TODO says it will record Amazing race on 6-1. However, the guide says "regular programming." Hmmmm

OK, after a little bit of work with the HR20-700 here is what I found.
No indication that it actually did a channel scan. It appeared to get the info out of the Sat stream to determine what it should show as channels.
6-1 is listed as WKMGDT (Not WKMG-DT)
6-2 is listed as WKMGDT2 (not LATV)
Signal strength was 100% on both when I tested (Tells me it is going to Frequency 26). (Found under Edit Off Air, Signal Meter)
From the guide, I can go to 6-1 and see TV. From the guide and directly dialing 6-2, I get the 771 searching for signal error.
I am thinking Antenna test and channel selection are using two different sources of data relative to physical OTA channel information.

Are you running the latest national release software, Version 0x02F4, on the HR20-700?

That is identically what I get here, also. I have reported it to DirecTV. On the same TV, I get 6-2 using the on board tuner. I think the scan is done when you run the initial setup.

To do the reset on the H10 (not HR10), I selected "Reset" from the menu and then selected "Reset Everything". I am getting guide data for both 6-1 & 6-2.

No, the latest CE 0x301.

Just goes to show how much you miss out on if you spend a few days away from here. I received my replacement 7694p antenna, put it up in the attic and promptly "lost" 6.1. I couldn't figure out if it was the new placement on the antenna or what. I didn't do anything about it for a few days, then jumped on here this morning, only to read what happened. That makes me feel a LOT better. So does successfully rescanning and pulling 6.1![]()
ThanksI love this site!![]()
My new plan is to keep it in the attic, install some of those screw in hooks, make some loops out of light rope or some old, crappy, shielded speaker wire , and hang the antenna from the hooks. This way, if i ever need to move the antenna, I can swing it a couple of different directions. No to just make my attic easier to get in to :-/
Lastly, I'm planning on picking up the Insignia converter box as soon as BestBuy has them in stock again. #1, is it still the best? #2 I'll finally be able to pull some signal strength stats for everyone.
Thanks again!

This is the latest news, which I received on Sunday:
Late night testing of the new WKMG antenna reveled some additional
work that must be done on the transmission system before we can begin
full power operation on channel 26. We will continue to operate at
reduced power until these corrections can be made. I expect this to
continue for the next few days and will update this group once we
have a target date again.

12:01 am DT26 + DT30 went off.
1:00 am DT33, DT 11 and DT 41 and analog 65 all went off also.
2:30 am all the stations except DT30 switched their tx back on.
4:00 am DT 30 came back up.
Don't know if somebody was on the tower during that time or if they were changing combiner configs around or something.
Could be there are 2 feedlines that go up, one that goes to the top platform and one that goes to the platform that is 82 feet below which is where WDSC and WBCC transmit from.
