Someone forgot to flip the switch at WIBW in Topeka (watching on Cox). I'm currently looking for their 24hr phone number.

In Miami, we don't get the KC/Jax game in HD. I get to see the winless Dolphins battle the winless Bills in SD.

Did you really think in Miami you would get another game if the Dolphins were playing? A little reality check may be in order.

Same here, Cox, in Northern Virginia. Working on it right now.

No HD in Milwaukee. Guess the engineers @ CBS are watching the Packer game on Fox and forgot to flip the switch.

Lions-Packers up in Toledo. FOX 36 WUPW's maiden voyage for NFL in HD. The Hawaiian blue and silver never looked so beautiful!

Call your local CBS stations.

Thanks, but my local doesn't care. Last week when it wasn't in HD, I called in and they told me that it is. When I reiterated that is isn't, they said, "Well, it's supposed to be." Then the guy checked the CBS schedule to confirm that it was supposed to be. That was the end of it. He didn't care that the reality was that they were asleep at the switch. He refused to do anything other than insist that it really is in HD. Everybody in the Atlanta forum agreed that it wasn't, it wasn't just me.

anyone getting poor audio on the dallas/ pitt game? i am getting it of the center channel only and then suddenly the others kick in and back out.


PQ does look great though.

 

[Ken H]

At that point, I would suggest contacting the station general manager during normal business hours, and relate your experience from above.


Also, with local engineers during off hours, I always tell them I'm on line and other viewers across the country are getting the games in HD.

 

[CPanther95]

Good PQ except some pixelization in Charlotte OTA. They're still multi-casting though.


Sounds like there are more Steelers fans in Dallas than Cowboy fans.

Not 5.1 for Comcast in Atlanta and it sounds HORRIBLE!!!


But the picture looks INCREDIBLE!!!
