PBS (7.x) channels are fritzing.

The PBS channels (the "7's") are pixelating or off the air. We're troubleshooting but have no ETA for a fix.

This is for viewers getting signals from McClure and Grizzly (Twisp to Mazama).

Fritzing? We have nothing except 6.1, nbc. for the past month at least. Not only that, we've had no abc or cbs (2.1 or 4.1) for over a year. We're in downtown Twisp with clear view to McClure and modern antenna. No solutions forthcoming from "Communications" District.

Hi-I live in Twisp & noticed we weren’t receiving 2.1 & 4.1 for a long time, I filled out an online form for T.V reception problems,on the Methow Valley Communications District website. Paul was very helpful & suggested a new antenna. We ordered it from Amazon, it’s around $40, it’s the Stellar Labs 30- 2475- Fringe directional antenna VHF- Hi HDTV 174-230 MHz & now receive channels 2.1 & 4.1 again along with 6.1, 6.2, 7.1, 7.2,7.3, 7.4, 28.1 & 28.2 And haven’t had a problem since the new antenna was installed. :)
