Re: Translator issues in Pahrump NV

Well, I failed to persuade the Town's Buildings & Grounds crew to rescan the input for K17CL-D on RF 17 and bring swift relief to viewers. However, late last night somebody fixed the missing table problem on RF 14 so now RF 14 and RF 17 are both transmitting uncorrupted, tunable TV signals. Viewers ...

Re: Translator issues in Pahrump NV

I sincerely appreciate the time people have taken to look at this issue and to educated me. Thank you. The NAB is about to kick off so the Sinclair engineer will probably tied up for a few days. In the mean time, there is another avenue I can pursue. There is yet another translator in town that ...

Re: Translator issues in Pahrump NV


Thanks for that. The rf14 file confirms that there is no PAT (PID 0) in the mux but there are lots of programs in it. Perhaps it is out of spec and send infrequently if it works sometimes.

RF 14 never works on my devices.

Do those channels work on a TV connected to an antenna?

RF 14 cannot ...

Re: Translator issues in Pahrump NV

Programming for KSNV is optimally available from multiple sources. Translator K33MJ-D is located on Mount Potosi 30 miles away. This RF 33 broadcast can be scanned by tuners in my devices but the signal is weak and choppy. Translator KSNV-LD is a couple of miles away in town, broadcasts a strong ...

Re: Translator issues in Pahrump NV

Yes, ChatGPT tells me that "You’ll receive the entire MPEG-TS — including all PIDs, PSI tables, subchannels, and more (if present)." by specifying program 0. He seems quite enthusiastic about it.

Re: Translator issues in Pahrump NV

The 100% signal strength is an artifact of the inline Televes SmartKom. I plugged in a stand-alone antenna that I use for experiments to the SiliconDust device.

Translator issues in Pahrump NV

My issue isn't about my Connect 4K so much as it's about particular ATSC 1.0 translators I'm wrestling with in town. Delete if not allowed.
None of my devices can tune this broadcast on RF 14 in a scan:

As you can see, it has a strong signal ...
