I have scaned and scaned and rescaned

I have scaned and scaned and rescaned and still I do not have any channels and it has been like this for two weeks. I am in Las Animas CO and have other people in my area that is having the same problem. We were wondering if the uhf satelite by pritchet is down. Can you help me at all?

Get online to the website for any of your local news stations. You should be able to find the contact information for the broadcast engineer there; contact that person directly and see what they have to say. I was having problems with channel 4 in my area a while ago and contacted the broadcast engineer for that channel, he was incredibly helpful.


Turns out my issue was caused by the signal from an Indiana station on the same frequency "skipping" across Lake Michigan; with his explanation of the issue I was able to solve it on my own by hanging a fence of aluminum foil in the attic behind my antenna.
