Thanks for the interesting report, trying to do what your TVFool report says will be difficult.

I now have every channel I want except for the elusive CBS (KIRO7) real channel 39 down south, 28 near me. I need to get this CBS figured out before Thanksgiving.
I understand the urgency.

When I do get a channel scan to show the CBS channel, it shows great signal strength, but almost no signal quality.
Which CBS channel, 28 or 29?
What equipment are you using for those reading?

Good signal strength but poor signal quality is a symptom of multipath reflections that damage the signal.

I have that problem with my GE 34792 attic/indoor antenna and CH13.

This single channel scan with my Sadelco DisplayMax 800 signal level meter shows notches in the signal, indicating multipath interference. Plenty of signal strength, but no lock on the signal.



Sony Diagnostics screen shows picture freeze, many errors, and SNR 0 dB.
