Fox44 and NBC33 out on my Direct TV, they are together, so I would think it was a station issue. Anyone else know what is happening?

If the HD channels are out, I can usually pick up the non HD channels.

Not going to say it's better than my cable signal but this is good advice.

It's the weather. That's why I had to go back to Charter. It got to where the signal would go out when it got cloudy.

The thing with the satellites is that all of the channels are on different frequencies. For example you might have channel 1035, 1246, 1114 all on the same frequencie. If the satellite is not picking up this frequencie you will lose the feed from the stations.

That is true. Blocks of channels are on different transponders.

And if you people are losing signal because of rain, you need to have then come and realign your dish.

I can be in Tornado type storms and never lose signal.

Fox is still out for me. Thankfully I can watch the Saints on Sunday Ticket. I'll try rebooting the receiver after the game.

I've been very diapoointed with DirecTV. shite goes out even with any storm. I tried realigning it myself and having them come out and do it. My parents had directv when I was a kid, and it never went out. How did their tech get so much worse?

Still much better than Cox for sure, but I guess I'm gonna have to give UVerse a try.

It's not Direct TV.

It's a WVLA and WGMB issue. It doesn't work over the air either.

Soon it will start to go out when it gets cloudy.

The Direct fan boys will be here soon to down vote yours and my post.

Surely somebody here has to know someone at these affilliates. Can we get a little more information than what's on the Fox44 facebook page? What kind of problems are they having and is it remotely reasonable to expect they will get them resolved any time soon? Really looking forward to the SNF game tonight, but I guess its looking doubtful I'm going to see it

dont worry, once ATT begins to put their people in place, u will really love Direct tv.

ATT could crush everyone, but they just dont know how to stop being jerkoffs to their customers. It's like their god given right.
