Not to mention notch filters aren't perfect, something blocking out San Antonio's KNIC-DT on RF 18 will likely affect Austin's KGBS-CD on RF 19.
A potential solution would be for them to start taking the TSID into account as that value is supposed to be unique. Like when the background scan gets a ...

Re: cbs trouble
None of the NYC area bandscans show any simultaneous changes with WCBS's signal like you would see if they switched to one of the backup transmission sites. WCBS is on RF 36, so it might be 5G interference. It could also be atmospheric boost causing Atlantic City's WMGM or Hartford's WFSB to ...

Re: Would a Flex 4k work in Europe?
No, the Flex 4K is ATSC/QAM only and Europe uses DVB.
If unencrypted 4K broadcasts are available terrestrially (DVB-T/T2) or on cable (DVB-C) in your country, you can get them with the DVB Flex model HDFX-4DT and if you don't need the USB hard drive option, you can use the DVB models of the Connect ...

Re: Encryption
Fox and ABC removed DRM in Miami. Step in the right direction.
That's only because WPLG's RF 10 signal is switching back to ATSC 1.0 on 7/28 , as their ATSC 1.0 host WSVN can't continue to carry WPLG's 1 HD and 2 SD channels on their RF 9 signal when 7.2 goes HD for the new ABC Miami and 365BLK ...

Re: Missing AC-4 stream
VLC relies on FFmpeg which doesn't support AC-4, so it just ignores the AC-4 audio stream as unknown binary data

Re: having issue with my HDHomerun again..
KCWX is moving from VHF-lo 5 to a DTS operation on VHF-Hi 8 . I'm not sure which of them will cover your area, but they will have sites in Albert/Lindendale , Austin , Atascosa , Lake Hills/Blue Heaven , Mountain Home and Cherokee .

It is fixed in the above version, but we're having some issues getting it approved in the Play Store and that may not be able to be resolved until next week. You can ...

Re: Curious as to why I can't receive one particular channel
WMOS-CD rebroadcasts CBS and is 11 miles away instead of 55.
Unless WOMS-CD converted to ATSC 3.0 without properly notifying the FCC, it doesn't rebroadcast WWMT/CBS.
The RabbitEars data for WOMS-CD and the other repeaters are screwed up since they're still flagged as repeaters of WXSP-CD ...

Re: Curious as to why I can't receive one particular channel
If you're talking about WOMS-CD on RF 29, that's only a 0.4 kW signal. Also, the RabbitEars data for it got screwed up when WXSP-CD and WOLP-CD converted to ATSC 3.0 for Grand Rapids, while their former simulcasts including Muskegon's WOMS-CD remained ATSC 1.0.

Even though AVC/H264 was added as an optional part of the specs in 2008, manufacturers were still pumping out tuners and TVs that are coded to only recognize streamType 0x02 (MPEG-2) for ATSC 1.0. Most notably the pre-Scripps models of a certain popular DVR. Over at the AVS forum there are a bunch ...

Re: Encryption
However owners of your 4K tuners are unable to record any programming in 4K or even view programing.
No progress appears to being made to change this, so why bother selling 4K capable SD hardware?
Even if the A3SA approved DRM decoding today, no one is using ATSC 3.0 to broadcast in 4K.
