Why is ATSC3.0 so unstable?

Post by tjp »

I have a HDHomerun Flex 4. There was a football game today that was being broadcast on station (KRON) that has both a ATSC1.0 and ATSC3.0 (undecrypted) channel. The ATSC3.0 channel would periodically breakup while the ATSC1.0 channel was always rock solid.
---------------ATSC1.0----------ATSC3.0
Sig Strength--98%--------91%
Sig Qual-----100%--------100%
Sym Qual ---100%--------100%

Why is the ATSC3.0 tuner performing so badly? Surely these reception values are high enough for a stable picture?
