WREG Memphis decrease in signal strength.
 
http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...d2437b03a901b5

Channel Master 4228 - 8 Bay Bowtie located in attic.

WREG has always been the channel with consistent 90-100% signal strength.

Channel 3.1 HD quality surpassed quality of the HD channels on my Dish.

Last few weeks daytime signal is 60% at best and night signal

unsatisfactory to be dependable.

Remaining OTA channels no change up or down in signal strength.

Equipment has not been changed nor has antenna been touched.

Antenna coax attaches to OTA module inside my Dish receiver.

Tonight I bypassed Dish OTA module and hooked antenna directly to TV coax

input and all the channels decreased in signal strength.

No success speaking with WREG engineer.

Any suggestions?

What does that mean? That you couldn't reach them or you reached them and they said that nothing was wrong on their end? If the former, keep trying as you may otherwise expend considerable resources on trying to fix something in your system when there's nothing wrong with it. If the latter, relocate the antenna and try again. Better yet, get the antenna out of the attic and up in the air. At 67 miles, a UHF signal isn't expected to be reliable in an attic.

Whatever the issue, it's going to either be with the station itself or your setup, including your surroundings.

I tried to reach by phone but no answer in that department. Holidy vacation could be the cause.
