High Definition Problem
I have a problem and I wonder if anyone else out there is experiencing the same thing. I own a Zenith HD-520SAT receiver. A little over a week ago I noticed it no longer picks up the digital channel of WTIC in Hartford, CT. (It's channel 31, virtual 61-1.) If anyone gets Fox-61 over the air, would you please let me know if you've had trouble getting the high-def signal. I'd like to figure out what's wrong before the playoffs start.
Update: Suddenly it works! Never mind.

David,
The following comes from the AVS Forum, which is the best resource you can find on OTA reception issues. The discussions are organized by market DMA.
Here's an excerpt from the forum that may help:
____________________________________
For those that are having problems getting WTIC Fox Hartford OTA to show up using the Digital Auto scan feature, this is what I had to do to make it work on my New Sony KDF-E42A10 RPTV.
Manually enter 31.3 from the Remote keypad and it will show up. 31.1 and 61.1 will show it is locked in the diagnostic window, but no Pic or Sound. It still won't save in the channel list however. So it will have to be manually entered to access.

Also, here's a link to the Hartford, CT discussion thread for AVS. You might want to check the forum for other market areas where you can receive one or more stations, assuming that aren't just limited to the Hartford area:
