Am I the only one?
I woke up this morning and turned on my local news (Detroit Area). My Ultra said "Searching signal..." My Signal is 80, but Quality is 0. I change to one of the DN channels, say 200 for example, and Signal remains at 80, and Quality is 86, yet it says "AutoRoll Processing".
I didn't have a chance to mess with it this morning, but now that I'm back home, I've reinstalled PFTAUSW080417U and still the same way. I have a Pansat 3500SD in the other room that's reacting the same way. My antenna settings still look the same.
Since it's happened the same way on both tv's, and noone else seems to be reporting any problems, I'm wondering if it has something to do with my dish. It's a Dish 500 w/DP Pro LNB that I'm using for 110 and 119. It worked fine until this morning, and we haven't had any storms, in fact it's been clear and sunny here.
Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Power OFF both receivers, unplug the power cords and disconnect the coax cables. Wait 10-15 mins and hook everything back. Power ON the receiver and wait a few mins for the A/R to lock in the signal.

Well, the Ultra appears to be back to normal, but the 3500 says "No Signal"

Re: Am I the only one?
This might be my problem too. I've been studying for a test so I haven't been pro-active at it's resolve. I lost a bunch of TP's on both birds last Bin updrade. I've tried factory reset to no avail. I was going to try this next....I'll check in later after I give it a try...

Re: Am I the only one?
I've tried to post twice to inform that that was indeed the problem, and I'm back up and running, but both posts have disappeared.
