I was all set to try to see the game in ATSC 3.0, but I noticed that Fox 8 was missing from the New Orleans mix of stations on the new shared ATSC 3.0 channel. I was going to see if they were going to push out a 4K or HDR signal that Fox was advertising they could provide if you had certain equipment and certain providers for the playoff games and Super Bowl.

And just when luck would have it, I also lost the ATSC 1.0 channel too. The fog is probably affecting the signal level. I noticed a drop in signal levels from all stations. Even the 3.0 station that is usually at 100% in strength level, signal quality, and symbol quality, the 3.0 signal level had dropped to 80%. The other values were at or near 100%.

It is not like it is much of a game at this point.

Update:

The ATSC 1.0 signal came back up. Signal level is at 82%, signal quality is hovering between 60-80%, and symbol quality 100% now.

I also noticed that both WVUE and WDSU were both missing from the single Nexgen multiplex in New Orleans.

I guess that is the pitfalls of having an antenna.

Update: They are not “missing” they are just encrypted. Hearst and Gray decided to add encryption and my HDHomeRun doesn’t support encryption yet.
