HGTV-HD Break-up - Canadian TV, Computing and Home Theatre Forums

Anyone else having problems with Bell TV 1703 HGTV channel......it continually breaks up and is unwatchable. All other HD channels are fine. The HGTV SD channel is also okay.

I've noticed a few short breaks (freeze)from time to time on HD Channel 1050 CBCHE...nothing major but just a little annoying. Don't think that's the same thing you're talking about.

We watch the station quite a bit, and we have never noticed an issue with the channel.

Put on the HGTV HD channel 1703.

Now using remote control, press MENU, 6, 1, 1

Which Transponder # is showing?

What is the signal strength?

Still breaking up. Transponder 14 on 82 with a signal strength of 95%. All other channels are perfect.

I haven't seen this on HGTV but for the last week I have seen it on AEHD. Sometimes to the point of being unwatchable.

This has been happening to me on AEHD as well.

Have had this happen to my parents on Global/CBS during Survivor the past few weeks. Also last night (at a different location) The Apprentice (NBC/Global) didn't record due to "signal loss". Not sure what's going on or if this is related.
