That's interesting that they have been able to get a transponder back up on D11 tpn2 (Net 10 TID 125). I still wonder what the failure mode was.

The signal from 103ca TPN 15 is at zero! That transponder is either on D12 or D15 (we can't pe positive which). Today it is supposed to be carrying:

How do the notices work? I am in the SF area and I see no notices. Do they only show for those who have affected equip?

They’re as -9 channels on the numbers of the big 4 local stations (similar to how they do it for disputes). Like the SF notice is on 7-9, and 7 is KGO, ABC.
They should only show for those with affected equipment, but based on earlier posts, it doesn’t look like they are.

In your Display settings, do you have "Hide SD Duplicates" set? If so, set it to "show all channels". I am not sure if that will make the INFO channels show in the guide or not, but I suspect so. It's been a long time since I had any SD duplicatees for my locals.

yeah I just set it to show all channels that and nothing showed up. Not trying to watch SD anything in 2024

I guess it's only for affected equip. Not fussed to see it, was just curious!
