:huh: Does any one else have their locals comming and going like me?
I'm have been testing rom 102/Hack's 7.2 codespace blocker on my 4900.
I had all my locals, then a few days later, they were gone. When I noticed it the first time, they were gone about all night, then they returned in the early morning hours. I had them for about 5 days, now they are gone again!
I have been testing some LNB's, dishes, and such, but I haven't done any futher testing on the receiver and/or card. After I tested the other equipment, I hooked my sat. feed back up, which is Dish 500 w/Legacy Quad, and a single dish for 61.5 running into a SW21. I ran the check switch, and all 3 birds are showing up with all odds and evens.
Is Dish Network, re-mapping the locals every so often, or what?
I have turned off my receiver, in hopes that it would update(local channel info.), but my locals are still gone!
Any advice or an answer to this, would be appreciated!
Thanks,

I guess loosing the locals was related to doing the testing of the different LNB's on another Dish. After turning my receiver off at 6:30am, and turning it back on about 6:55am, my locals returned! I assume all it needed was time to update that particular info., again. Any ways...all is good...so far!

I noticed the same problem... Locals go blank momentarily and come back.
It only last a few seconds.
:wacko:

This usually happens when you have to many tiers on your bin. Try getting rid of a few and see if that helps.

It's all good, as of now. I used Hack Kid's 7.2 bin, and all I modified and inputed was my local channel info., and time zone. I didn't use any personal tiers or such. Like I said earlier, it must had been related to me testing the other sat. lnb's. I guess, when I did the signal and switch testing, somehow that wipped out my local channel info. on the receiver, and all my receiver needed was to be turned off for a while to update the info. from the cam back to the receiver. I know...sounds fishy, but my locals have been back all day and night. I haven't lost them again...not yet anyway! Thanks guys for your advice and help.
